2
I get 2 well 2 is my lucky number
Ok I have lots of patients and dont give up most people think it is
virtue, but the girls think it is a character flaw some wont even talk
to me anymore. Why am i telling you this because I am really becoming
upset to put it mildly. In fact i am beginning to hate FreeBSD, UNIX,
Computers, and yes even BincIMAP. Here it is again 2:30am and i
remember working on this stuff before i even brushed my teeth this
morning. Sometimes i wish i could give up but i do not think i have
it in me that is alot of i's for one sentence in fact this mail oh well
Please dont take this the wrong way you guys are great and BincIMAP is
righteous so if you do not give up on me i will not give up on
FreeBSD, UNIX, Computers, or BincIMAP.
Telneted in to binc but when i do a ps -aux |grep bincimap-up i get
nothing what the F*&^
#ps -aux |grep bincimap-up
root 1645 0.0 0.4 1076 632 p1 S+ 2:04AM 0:00.01 grep
bincimap-up
Strace is not even installed on FreeBSD i could add it like recordio
but look where that prog got me nothing so far.
Thank you as i know you must be frustrated with me as well.

so the output is 2 i think
I believe Henry meant for you to replace the <user> and <pass> with your
username and password; did you do this?
Also, here's a good test for you: Connect to the server with telnet
<host>
143. Then do a "ps" and find the pid of bincimap-up. Now, while keeping
the telnet session open, attach to bincimap-up with
strace -s 128 -f -p <thatpid>
This command should just hang after printing one line or something.
Now, with the telnet session, log in using this command:
1 LOGIN <user> <password>
The strace program will now dump lots of stuff to the console. Post all
that stuff here, and it'll say what's going on.
Andy :-)
