Oh yeah an  nmap -sU myhost reveals:

(The 1470 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed)
PORT      STATE SERVICE
68/udp    open  dhcpclient
111/udp   open  rpcbind
123/udp   open  ntp
137/udp   open  netbios-ns
138/udp   open  netbios-dgm
518/udp   open  ntalk
784/udp   open  unknown
32768/udp open  omad

Nmap run completed -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 6.897 seconds


As suspected nothing blocks port 518/udp :-/

Any other idea of how to get that %@^&^ talk program to run properly? :-)


With kind regards,

Didier.
