	Environment: Unix
	Number of shar parts: 3

                              Description
                              -----------
horton - an e-mail directory daemon, whois/ph server, and fuzzy mail forwarder

    Horton automatically and silently creates a electronic mail address
    directory by 'finger'ing each host in your domain periodically,
    and lets users look up e-mail addresses with the 'whois' command.
    If your company or university doesn't yet have an e-mail directory,
    this package will provide you with one without much effort on your part.
    It can also be a useful adjunct to a manually maintained e-mail directory,
    because it is always up to date, whereas the manually maintained one can
    lag weeks or months behind changes in the real world.  (e.g. Caltech has
    both a manual whois server and a Horton whois server.)

    Besides accepting whois queries, Horton can also forward mail addressed
    to John-Miller@horton to the most recent e-mail address for John Miller
    in the whois database.  This is sometimes called fuzzy name lookup.
    Horton can, as a side effect, also accept ph queries.

    The command
	whois -h horton_server search_key
    where
	horton_server is the name of the computer running Horton
	search_key  is all or part of a person's name
    lists all people whose name or username match the pattern.

    Horton runs under Unix, and has been tested with SunOS 4.1.1 and 
    partially tested with HP/UX and NeXT Mach 2.0.
    It requires sh, csh, and TCP/IP, and relies on other machines (possibly 
    VMS systems) to respond to Finger requests.
    The mail forwarding feature requires sendmail and the Perl interpreted 
    language; the installation instructions mention where to obtain Perl.
