I'd really appreciate any ideas, or even a push in the right direction. I have FreeBSD 4.0 and most everything is great. However: 1. How can I increase the timeout length for an inactive telnet session? 5 minutes is too short for me.(I'm the only user, so bogging down the system with dead telnet processes is not an issue.) 2. I have installed several different versions of Netscape, both Communicator and Navigator. They install fine but when I try to run it, I get "libXt:Cannot find libXt.so.6" Which seems to be all over my system: >locate libXt /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.a /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.a /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.so /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.so.6 /usr/libdata/libXt.so.6.0 /usr/libexec/libXt.so.6 /usr/libexec/libXt.so.6.0 /usr/local/lib/libXt.so.6.0 /usr/local/libexec/libXt.so.6.0 So why can't Netscape find it? 3. Im having trouble setting up sendmail. I had it working fine in version 3.4 FreeBSD, but now, When I run popper and try to connect from Win98 I get "Unable to get canonical name of client" and when I try to send mail through it, I get "Sender domain must exist" error. I've got a FQDN, billsequipment.com, registered. There's an MX record in my named setup(cronus being the server's name): IN MX 50 cronus.billsequipment.com. and the following line in sendmail.cf: Dj$w.billsequipment.com and I setup access.db from the following text file: billsequipment.com RELAY I setup a lot of other stuff to try to fix this, but Im not sure what would actually be relevent to the problem. So, assuming I know how to set up my mail client in Win98, (I've done that a billion times) what needs to be set up for the server? I've been through all the help sources, man pages, mail archives, FAQ at FreeBSD.org and two books. What am I missing? -- Sincerely, Stephen M.
