Hello!

I installed XEmacs version 21.4.19; November 2006
on Debian GNU/Linux Etch.

I am using XEmacs packaging system to install packages,
like xwem, etc.

When I use this method I get error message:
Searching for program: No such file or directory, nslookup

Then I must to switch to the XEmacs buffer:
'*ftp anonymous at ftp.heanet.ie*'

There is the line:

'ftp>  331 Guest login ok, type your name as password.
ftp>'

Here I must to use the fpt 'user' command to login as
anonymous user with my e-mail address.

Then if I do:

Tools / Packages / List and Install

finally get the list of installable packages.

I try to search Google for the solution for this;
I try to install exim4 on my Debian Etch system thinking
that that it maybe automate this anonymous logging, but
don't.

How to set up my Debian system to solve this problem?
