I'm running RedHat 4.0, kernel 2.0.18. I was trying to set up the in-house
Linux box as a central email box, and Win95 (LAN-connected) clients were
failing to get through. Tried a text-based connection on the Linux box itself
to see what's up and get the following:
Trying 10.100.100.101...
Connected to tasha.xxxxx.xxx.
Escape character is '^]'.

telnet> quit
Connection closed.
I've tried three different accounts with the same result. I ran a Linux box a
few years ago, and POP worked immediately. Something different with 2.0+
kernels? Something different about the POP server included with the RedHat
distribution? What's going on...?
Thanks.
