I have 2.1-RELEASE up and running...

- Netscape 2.0 sometimes takes up more memory than my X server...
Does anyone have a nice "stable" version of Netscape 1.x out there?
Or could someone recommend an alternative graphical web browser that
isn't bloated up the wazoo with Java, mail, and news clients i neither
use nor want?

- If i telnet to port 25 locally, it just hangs there for a while.  I
hit enter and, after a while, it comes back with the "220-ennui.ops.best.com
Sendmail 8.6.12/8.6.12 ready at Mon, 8 Apr 1996 11:48:09 -0700"
message and says "500 command unrecognized", and i get a message in
/var/log/messages similar to

Mar 14 14:23:45 ennui sendmail[19873]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR: putoutmsg
(ennui.ops.best.com): error on output channel sending "220 ESMTP
spoken here": Invalid argument

This doesn't happen if i go to 25 from another host.  Is it my telnet?

- One line:  "Mar 16 03:30:01 ennui inetd[88]: /usr/local/sbin/identd:
exit status 0x100".  I also get lots of "Mar 16 04:12:37 ennui last
message repeated 578 times".  I've disabled identd in my /etc/inetd.conf
for now,

#ident  stream  tcp     wait    root    /usr/local/sbin/identd  identd -w -t120

but does someone know what i broke?

- I have a new Seagate 1.08G IDE hard drive which i've hooked up to my
IDE controller as wd1.  I set it up in my CMOS as LBA, by doing
cylinders/4 and 4*heads (the drive says 2100 cylinders, 16 heads, and
63 sectors/track; the CMOS settings are 525 cylinders and 64 heads).
I've run fdisk -i -u /dev/rwd1 and set it to both 2100/16 and 525/64
and used the whole disk in the first partition.  I then do disklabel
-e /dev/rwd1 and i get

disklabel: ioctl DIOCWDINFO: Operation not supported by device

What should i do?

Thanks a lot!
