Hi all,
please advice with small problem.
I have the gateway running FreeBSD 4.3 with sendmail and pop3d.
It seems to slow down all downloads of localy saved mails.

Hi all,
Sorry if this has been posted before, but I've not seen anything in the bug
report db.
I've got three boxes running FreeBSD4.5 with no src upgrades. I've got an up

Gone into /usr/ports/www/apache13-modssl and done 'make build'. It gives me:
cc -c
I'm sorry, i searched for PID in the manpage...
