now that i have a shiny new install, clean from all my old junk files
<cry>, i thought i might give a shot at setting up my system nicely
this time around. :-)
these two questions are separate...
first, i was wondering if there is a way to create a global readable
(ldap, or other format?) addressbook? Although pine's .addressbook
format works alright, it would be really nice to have access to my
email aliases from anywhere (netscape, whatever...)
What program would I use for these? RH6 doesn't appear to distribute
with any of these per default (?)
second, I'm planning on using a SQL database (postgres) to maintain
my address book and other important info. As opposed to the random
skattering of files that existed on my drive before.
I was wondering if anyone knew how i might go about creating a perl
(re: custom) interface for my database? I'm doing it more as a learning
experience than out of necessity...
thanks very much :)
