I haven't been able to log in since they went to SSH, which is one of the reasons my .forward file still points to [EMAIL PROTECTED] insterad of [EMAIL PROTECTED], and email sent there currently bounces while I sort out the email forwarding issue for my domain with Earthlink, which doesn't provide the level of service of the ISP they purchased my dialup account from. It's also the reason I don't take down my UMICH LDAP patches (they were folded in with the UMICH code as the basis for the OpenLDAP project, so they're not really needed any more). Check the lastlog, if you don't believe me. I know that Garrett Wollman suffered from the same problem (the SSH changover shot him in the shorts) until just recently. I just (as in a matter of weeks) got SSH clients working on my local systems so I could work from home, but for file transfers, I'd still have to come out of the account to an FTP somewhere else (i.e. pull the files -- a chicken and egg problem, as I do not have an FTP server) or set up a procmail filter to capture and not forward specific email (I'm willing to do that). So while you are correct that there is an account there, I can't log into it right now, and I don't know to whom I should send the passwd file line now that I'm able to do that, since the changeover was long enough ago that the hosting for the machine has changed since then. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
