*You will need at least two systems to do this lab. The first could be Fedora on your removable hard drive while the second could be a virtual machine.
{{Admon/important|Prerequistites|Your hard drive should have Fedora 1316, 64 bit Live edition already installed.<br />You should have at least one VM installed: also Fedora 13, 64 bit Live edition<br />Both your host and guest should have default firewalls enabled.<br />Both host and guest should have all software updated.<br />Ensure the clocks on both machines are set to the correct date and time.}}

yum install mailx
