Hi - My little private network looks as follows:
PC1 (WIN95,Linux) <---> PC2 (Linux) <----> ISP Dual boot option INN, SMAIL ISDN I don't have problems with ISP connectivity; masquerading and forwarding is done by PC2; everything's working fine, so far. I have installed a news server on PC2 (INN) and mail is handled by SMAIL on PC2 as well. Both are polled and fed using UUCP between PC2 and my ISP. I can read and post news under WIN95 and Linux on PC1. But I do need some advice from you: how should I setup mail on PC1 under WIN95 and Linux ? - PC1/Linux should be done by SMAIL as well, right ? Forwarding from PC1 to PC2 ? Right now mail is sorted into /var/spool/mail on PC2 for different users, so I could mount /var/spool/mail on PC1 using NFS. Is this recommended ? - PC1/WIN95 should be done by POP3, right ? Does SMAIL handle the POP3 protocol as well ? If not, what package do you recommend ? qpopper ? I looked into qpopper and installed it, but I really don't know how the setup is done. In inetd.conf there is a line for POP3: pop-3 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.pop3d I don't have a in.pop3d, but a in.qpopper instead. Should I change this, and is that all ? Thanks and with regards, Michael -- ============================== Michael Grimm, Berlin, Germany Linux will win ... ==============================
