I have a cople of questions I wanted to ask you BSD wiz'os out there.

1) When I run 'talk <name>' I get "party is refusing talks". How do I set the 
'accepting talks' on?  Or is it something I need to enable in general.

2) Is enabling name servicies something simple?

3) Where can I get some sample quota.user and quota.group files?

4) and lastly what is the best way to transfer files form one NetBSD machine to
another? I installed NetBSD at home I would love to take some of the programs
home but mount_msdos seems to be less than dependable :)

Thanks,
Mike Wilson
