> From: John Hay <jhay@mikom.csir.co.za> > # who I masquerade as (null for no masquerading) > DMmikom.csir.co.za Thanks John, I'd spotted it, but was wary of using it, as I didnt want the other logins apart from me (jhs) on this box to be masqueraded, because the other logins on this box here don't have any equivalent same name login on my up-link masquerade host, the only login where masquerading would work is for jhs@vector.eikon.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de --> jhs@regent.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de if for instance any friends visited me (physically, or via rlogin while my slip link was up (as one already has)), then any mail they sent from my box (to wherever) would end up with a reply-to: on a masquerade host that would bounce them. My Ip provider will happily (if he hasn't already) provide an MX record, but he says his box will still bnounce my hosts mail, if my host doesnt pick up within 3 days (& my host ist no way stable enough for me to risk the modem running unattended, the phone bill if something went wrong would be devastating) Julian S.
