there is or was a bug in it, such that if you had two instances of
127.0.0.1 in your hosts file, OpenSMTPD would fail with a message that it
couldn't listen on address 127.0.0.1 because it was already in use (or
somesuch).

Note that the "protocol" doesn't matter. I can use "smtp" alone as the

I need a way to bring all these subdirectories and their contents under a

I've used Xpdf from Arch, and it's an entirely different program. My

I use xpdf, which is extremely simple and will allow printing. Don't think
it has a CLI interface. However, I would imagine that simply feeding a PDF
