KBear/KMLdonkey/Kwebget - kde 3.2

Hello all, this is my first post. After browsing this forum, and others, I still haven't been able to find an answer to my problem. The problem is this: ever since updating to KDE 3.2 on my SUSE 9.0 system, I cannot get a connection with KBear, KMLdonkey, or Kwebget. When I open any of these I get "connection refused" (in the case of KMLdonkey). KBear shows "connection - not connected". I have tried connecting with the firewall disabled and get the same result. Has anyone else run into this problem, and discovered a fix? I was able to connect to all of these while using KDE 3.14. Thanks in advance for any and all help - Gary

Just a side note. I just installed gftp and it works like a charm, so I do have something that works. Maybe that will give someone smarter than me (that leaves the field wide open :~) a clue as to why the others will not. Thanks again for any and all input. - Gary

I've run into the same problem.

With KBear...Attempting FTP, I get no response at all. After clicking Connect, the window to the FTP site pops up, but is completely empty, and 'Not Connected' in the status bar. Attempting SSH, I get 'Connecting' then 'Initiating Protocol', but then it goes dead and again I get 'Not Connected' in the site's status bar.

I'm running KDE 3.2, with SuSE 9.0, I can connect just fine via Konquerer or gftp.

I'm getting the same problem. Connection refused with Kbear. No problems with gftp or the the ftp publishing utility in Mozilla.

Possible hint: At one point in my experimenting, I got a more helpful message that said that the server was willing to connect to [the external IP address of my Netgear router] but not to [the local IP address of the NIC in the KDE box I'm using].

Maybe someone who knows more than I do can tell me whether I should report this via bugzilla.
