rsync daemon down?

[Evan Weaver]

Hmm. Still having trouble. I shut off the OS X 10.4.10 Firewall, and
shut off the application "Little Snitch", and my company's VPN app.
Still:

chloe:~ eweaver$ telnet rsync.macports.org 873
Trying 17.254.17.246...
telnet: connect to address 17.254.17.246: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host

Incidentally I can see it ok from the router itself (OpenWRT):

root at blondie:~$ telnet rsync.macports.org 873
@RSYNCD: 28

Also I can see it from an Ubuntu server on the same LAN:

eweaver at brooke:~$ telnet rsync.macports.org 873
Trying 17.254.17.246...
Connected to alpha.macosforge.org.
Escape character is '^]'.
@RSYNCD: 28

I'll try rebooting this machine in a minute in case something has gone
horribly wrong with the local DNS cache.

Thanks for your help

Evan
