Each time a Windows 95 machine is rebooted the FreeBSD machine dials out to the Internet. Any clues on how to stop this as we have to pay for each phone call. 2. Does anyone have a pointer to how to set up fetchmail for use in this configuration as I would like to setup more regular email access. 3. Is it necessary or desirable to use the FreeBSD as a local DNS server, if so can someone send some example config files as the examples in the FAQ and Handbook cause errors in named.
