Newbie question I'm afraid ...
What is the most likely cause of the keygen utility throwing a "Too many network
failures" error? It happens very quickly ... so it's not a timeout issue.
I'm suspecting I need my hosting provider to open a port ... but I don't find
documentation confirming that suspicion.


Tarsnap needs to connect out on port TCP/9279.
