Yay! I am mighty proud of myself now. I managed (in a totally crippled way) to check my e-mail from Linux. But you're gonna laugh when you hear how I have to do mail etc. 1. log in as root and run X 2. log in as paul and stay in ~/ 3. as root run the 'network configurator' in the control panel and dial into the server 4. in the paul-session do the fetchmail thing. 5. disconnect in X I can run the control panel thing in X when I run it as Paul, but I cannot get the dial up started. Probably has something to do with rights etc. again. But I have come a step closer. Another weirdy: I found out that, as Paul, I can run netscape. As root I can't. So I can run X and load netscape, but since I can't dial in through X as user Paul I can't do a thing with it. duh... *grin* If anyone can shed some light on this, I'd appreciate it bigtime. I have learned a tremendous lot already just reading stuff on this list!
