- I have an old Next Box running system 1.0 and I am having
- trouble getting it to receive mail. It will send mail out
- no problem, and I generally have no trouble loggin onto
- other machines from it or vice -versa. The main problem
- I have is that I cannot seem to receive mail in any of the accounts.
-
- I cannot open the mail manager program (I try as root, but it gives
- me a window which only says ".exiting") I try to use NetInfoManager
- and I get a NetInfo Error saying "Domain selected failed to open".
-
- Also the machine will not accept remote logins to root, only to
- a user account.
-
- I do not know where to go from here, I get no support from
- the company in the use of the machine nor will they give me the
- $ to upgrade it. (I'm only here as a summer intern). The mail people
- don't know whether they should list my machine as being uucp, smtp, etc?
-
- Any suggestions?
-
- Thanks in advance for any input.
