G'Day Troops,
I am new to this group and have a question to the Pine users.
Using PC-Pine on my windows box I can escape the drudgery of typing my
password every time I open PC-Pine by creating the file pine.pwd in my
C:\programs\pine directory
The question is, can I do this on my RH 7.2

When I sued to use Pine on my RedHat system I didnt have a passwd for Pine.
In fact I dont think Pine itself has a passwd as its not needed on Linux.
You have to login and get a shell up to start Pine so how can anyone use
Pine without knowing your login passwd.
Thanks Mike but Pine is

When I boot with kernel 2.4.16 I get a couple of strange (to me)
things.
1. If I ask for a df I get an entry in the table for /dev/shm

This entry is not present when I boot back to 2.4.0.
Any one know what /dev/shm is and why it appears?

You need to supply more details.
Does your box have an MX record pointing to it?
If not you will probably have to retrieve mail with fetchmail.
There are many and varied other mail setups possible as well - you need to
supply some more details of what you are trying to do :)

Sendmail is running on the machine and accepting connections according to
ps -aux? You can telnet to your.deadrat.machines.ip on port 25 ok?
If so, try sending a mail from another machine to
username@[your.deadrat.machines.ip] and watch your log for problems.
Cheers,
Marty

Oh another thing to watch out is that sendmail (default) listens only to
127.0.0.1 to connect...
search your sendmail.cf for 127.0.0.1 and you'll probably find it.. I can't
rememeber what I did but it had to be remarked or changed..
