xdm is not a window manager and i do not think your way is the right one. in fact if you put fetchmail -d in .xsession the daemon will keep on every ten minutes to try to fetch mail even though you are not connected to your isp. the correct way is to put a script in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/ directory which would be activated as soon as you start a connession to your isp (see another today's answer under the same subject). aldo --- sito familiare: http://utenti.tripod.it/vel/ altra e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Odi et amo quare id faciam fortasse requiris nescio sed fieri sentio et excrucior Catullus
