The line you gave is different than what i have in my /etc/festival.scm. My line reads: (set! server_access_list '(localhost localhost\.localdomain)) When I was setting up my festival, I relied on /etc/init.d/festival, which states: # NOTE: Not just anybody can connect to your server; the list of allowed # hostnames is a regexp. Check /usr/share/festival/festival.scm for more # helpful comments; add your settings to /etc/festival.scm. and on /usr/share/doc/festival/README.Debian, which states: Set the 'server_access_list' variable to the host names you want to grant access to the server. Note that this variable holds a regular expression which is matched against whatever the client's IP address resolves to (or the address itself, if address-to-name resolution fails). For local connections, that is the first name in the '127.0.0.1' line of /etc/hosts; it may or may not be 'localhost'. Set 'server_access_list' to NIL if you want to control access by other means (e.g., if your firewall filters incoming access to TCP port 1314, or whatever you've set the 'server_port' variable to): (set! 'server_access_list nil) I remember that when I was doing it, it took 2-3 edits of /etc/festival.scm and trial and error, before I got it working. So, I'd suggest trying the following in your /etc/festival.scm: (set! server_access_list '(127\.0\.0\.1 cq cq\.ftml\.net)) I haven't run festival for a good while now, in favor of espeak, but I've just started up my festival service, to see if my setup still works, and it does; I was able to telnet to 127.0.0.1 1314, and make festival say some text. Hth.
