The kludge that I've worked out is to put an individual system crontab entry for each user. The crontab points to a small script in the user's home directory which runs fetchmail as the individual user. This, of course, requires that each user has their own fetchmail config file in their home directory and their own individual setup. This works for me as I only have a few users on my home box, but would be a nightmare in a production machine with lots of users. -- Regards, | Debian GNU/ __ o http://www.debian.org . | / / _ _ _ _ _ __ __ Randy | / /__ / / / \// //_// \ \/ / ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | /____/ /_/ /_/\/ /___/ /_/\_\ http://www.golgotha.net | ...because lockups are for convicts...
