Yep, I agree. Turning on ntalkd (/etc/inetd.conf) is one of the first things I do on a new box. I still use talk daily to keep in touch with friends. Often, we will use talk over an ssh connection but this requires having an account on the box. It'd be nice if there were an encrypted version of ntalkd. The thing I like about the unix talk is that it doesn't require any 3rd party servers like IRC, ICQ or whatever. Its strictly box to box. I've even went so far as to hack talkd/announce.c to play a wav file when a talk request is received. The port net/ytalk is similar and allows more than 2 parties to talk. It also needs the ntalkd turned on. Randy -- ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Syslogd sending messages to two files
Recently I setup a Soekris machine with M0n0wall and redirected the log files to a freebsd server. In /etc/syslogd I have: !ipmon *.* /var/log/mono.log Which works, however I also get the messages in /var/log/messages Is there a way to stop those messages from going to both places? I only want them going to /var/log/mono.log Other than that minor issue soekris+m0n0wall has been a killer combo (the client wanted something small). ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
