Dear Oscar, Dave, David, and others ;-) Thanks very much for your replies, you've given me lots to follow up on. Just to clarify, it's a single machine that a lot of users (~200) connect into. What I'm most interested in is pop3 usage (via qmail pop3), as it's recently gone thru the roof. It'd also be nice to have figures on other protocals (such as ssh, imap), but not important. When I said '/etc/passwd' I meant all users that connect under an account (and since we don't have virtual pop accounts, this was the easiest way of specifying it). -- Sonia.

Provides the shared run-time libraries that enable programs compiled with this version of Bigloo to be run, without needing to have the full compiler installed. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
