On our network we have about 40-50 users on their own workstations ( a mix of Macs,Win95:s and NTs ). And as it is today, they themselves fetch/send the mail from our mailprovider ( pop3 & smtp ) at their own will. What I am trying to accomplish now is for the FreeBSD box to fetch all their mail ( maybe 1-2 times an hour ) and act as a POP/SMTP server to the users, carrying their mail for them and sending in out to the mailprovider. Each person got their own password / uid on the mailserver so the FreeBSD box of course needs to know that information. My biggest concern is that I don't want to create "users" on the FreeBSD box. Example: USER ---> passwd:1212 uid:1313 ---> FreeBSD Box ---> passwd: JIh3egd uid: a012.... ----> The users normal mailaccount Is this possible to do? And if it is, what programs do you recommend to fully implement this task? And while I am at it, at bootup of the FreeBSD box I get a message ( right after the memory messages ) like this - Bad BIOS32 Service Directory! What is this? Regards, / Thomas Uhrfelt ...
