this is a question regarding several processes started at runtime
specifically i am wondering if i need sendmail, postgresql, smb, snmpd,
and routed.
What would happen if i turned these off? I have looked in the man pages
and i still dont really understand what these do. could some one give me
a simple english description of these?
I am the only user on my machine, I dont use my machine to get mail (I
telnet to my account elsewhere), but i do use a ppp connection.
thanks in advance
blake
