Of course, if you aren't running a comsat daemon it'll do little good. I recall that porting comsat was pretty easy. Nonetheless, an IRIX 4.0.* ready version is available for anonymous FTP from jhunix.hcf.jhu.edu in pub/public_domains_software/SGI. Then, of course, your mail system must know how to poke the comsat server -- can't really help you there... -Andy Andy Poling Internet: andy@jhunix.hcf.jhu.edu UNIX Systems Programmer Bitnet: ANDY@JHUNIX Homewood Academic Computing Voice: (410)516-8096 Johns Hopkins University UUCP: uunet!mimsy!aplcen!jhunix!andy
