I'm sorry if this is a duplicate posting; I wasn't sure my 'sendmail' did
actually send the message.

Starting with a clean 1.3.60, I was unable to telnet/rlogin to the
localhost. When I telnetted to another Linux machine (also .1.3.6x), and
then telnetted from that machine to my own box, it worked.

My configuration:
libc-5.2.18
gcc-2.7.2-ELF

'ifconfig'-output:
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Bcast:127.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3584 Metric:1
RX packets:4 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
TX packets:4 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0

eth0 Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet HWaddr 00:40:05:17:D1:10

RX packets:2433 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
TX packets:85 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
Interrupt:10 Base address:0x300

part of my /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1:
# Attach the loopback device.
/sbin/ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
/sbin/route add -net 127.0.0.0

Somebody any suggestions?
I'm using 1.3.62 at the moment, with de video-2.2.2-patch for more textmodes
with my miroCRYSTAL 12SD with S3-Trio32.
