John went over that. I was going to say something, but my message bounced. >Also, while I'm at it: does anyone know anything about getting mh to >run with the Kerberos authentication system? the POP-3 protocol? >From the installation manual "...mh-6.7/READ-ME": options: POPSERVICE The port name the MH POP will use. For historical reasons, this defaults to "pop". The MH POP pro- tocol (POP version 3) has finally been assigned its own port number (110), which differs from the original POP (version 1) port number (109). To have MH POP use the new assigned port number, set POPSERVICE='"pop3"', and be sure that this service name is listed in your /etc/services file on both POP client and server hosts as "110/tcp". I don't know if it works though, we don't use MH's POP service here. As for Kerberos, I haven't seen anything yet, but it would be nice to know if someone out there is anyone working on it. Some applications which could probably benefit are bboards (better group security) and maybe POP (automatic authoization with a correct Kerberos ticket). Combined with zephyr (new command rcvzephyr or an improved rcvtty, or maybe a zmsgchk which works like an improved biff) and hesiod (?better alias support?), Kerberos could add some neat features (meant both ways ;-) to MH. ________________________________________________________________________ Eric W.
