}can’t connect to host
Repaired permissions, trashed SU plist in Preferences, flushed
caches, logged on as another user w/admin rights, toggled network
connection in sys prefs (KB 106695), replaced the SU pref pane.
The only other malfunction I can see is temperature widget
does not connect anymore.
I can boot from another partition and SU runs fine.
Problem started after attempt to update fink after initial
install. Fink complains of connect refused.
So you've confirmed that your internet connection is working
normally? You can get to various websites with no problem.
The preference file for the softwareupdate tool is in root's home
directory (because it must be run as root anyway). So first, try
'sudo softwareupdate -l'. If that doesn't work, do 'sudo defaults
delete com.apple.SoftwareUpdate'. That should delete any Software
Update preference items for root. Then try again.
