The uncommented lines are exactly as shown in ip-up. I still have to run the commands fetchmail and sendmail by hand to get anything to go in or out, but they are both already running as daemons.
I'm afraid I can't find the rest of this thread, and it's a bit old, but... have you tried putting 'sendmail -q' in your /etc/ppp/ip-up script? That will flush the mail queue.
Yep, it's in there. It's not much of a problem. When I have more time I'll play around with it a little more. I'm working on getting my CD-RW set up. Then I won't need windows anymore. :-) -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
