Hello
I use a small PC with NetBSD 1.1 as the mailserver for about 80 people,
and the machine runs sendmail and the pop package, for the users who read
their mail with Eudora (POP3).
The Qualcomm site has some versions of a pop-password-daemon to permit
the Eudora users to change their passwords, but until now I have not
been able to make this daemon work, although it compiles without error.
All thing seem to be setup correctly.
So my question: is there any bunch of options, that I have to specify
when building a new kernel, that will make the poppasswd daemon run?
Does this daemon, for example, require the SYSV-stuff, which I am used
to disable?
Please give me some hint.
-cr
PS: next weekend I will update our mailserver to Release 1.2 :-)
What about the security fixes that were recently anounced, when will
these patches come out?
