-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

I've been shifting my e-mail operation from work to home, exmh, and FreeBSD 
1.1.5.1.  While moving saved FreeBSD security messages, I ran across an 11/94 
message telling how to modify the 1.1.5.1 kernel to log rejected UDP and TCP 
attempts.  I implemented it.  It showed me where I was trying to use name 
service before the name server was working, and (here's where we get back 
'round to e-mail) it revealed that I am rejecting TCP authentication requests 
(port 113) every time I send mail.

I guess I used to think that authentication service was provided by inetd. 
Apparently not.  What provides it?  Do I already have the necessary daemon in 
1.1.5.1 and just need to start it in /etc/rc.local?  If I don't already have 
it, where is a good place to look for it?

A pointer to the end of any thread leading to authentication service would be 
greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
