Ahh yes, I have done this before, Kerberizing my entire home LAN for no good reason other than I had the OReilly book :) I settled on Exim for 2 reasons, the first was it was the Debian default (what finally sold me on Linux in the 90s), the second was plain text config. Postfix does not look too bad either, I am going to get my hands dirty with this MTA in the next 2 months for a client (Kolab proof of concept). For an ugly config, the system sendmail used to use (still does??? I have no idea) was m4 macros... I am still not sure why this was a good idea. > Thanks again, Gustin, for starting me off! > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEZXilwRXgH3rKGfMRAts3AJ9ysP9BjyrFgIY6sjQgxJQHVJI98ACfa9n3 ln8CYVnuYqLzZ/fnEl2+P1I= =uGi5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
