Author UNIT to Win32 ports? [Finger/Mail]

Hello.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) I know Win 2000/XP have the finger command, but is there a port of
the Finger daemon for NT (runs as service) ?

2) Is there a port of the Mail system (in unix/linux you type mail,
that seems to be seperate from pop3/smtp - internal mail) for win32?
(That posibly runs as an nt service?)
(and I mena both the client and server parts, so my XP system can
act like line al inux or unix system with mail.)


Thanks very much!

I don't know if it has the finger daemon, but you might try Cygwin.
