Wrong Archetecture. which is confusing, i don't think i upgraded anything but i am not positive, i'm fairly certain all my files came from ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/systems/FreeBSD/2.1.0-RELEASE/ 128.42.161.30 also, if i try mailing to any user locally (i use pine to do so) and use the ip numbers instead of address (pine root@128.42.161.30 instead of pine root@lovett-2030.lovett.rice.edu) it will not work- the mail gets returned with the following: ----- The following addresses had delivery problems ----- root@128.42.161.30 (unrecoverable error) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 550 root@128.42.161.30... Host unknown (Name server: 128.42.161.30: host not found) anyway, again, i get the previous from "pine root@128.42.161.30" after i send the mail. thanx for any comments
