[NBLUG/talk] localhost: connection refused

[Todd Cary]

Steve -

I think this shows the problem!

netstat -nr gives

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt

I do not see 127.0.0.1 for "lo"

Can you suggest how to fix it and what I may have done to create this?
