Oh, that looks interesting :) I never knew of such a thing, is it a well kept secret or am I not widely read-enough ? In point of fact I am slightly puzzled by /stand's existance. It says in "hier" that it is for stand-alone systems. What exactly is it referring to ? (Yes I know what stand-alone means ! But what context is this used in ?) -- Regards Cliff Sarginson The Netherlands [ This mail has been checked as virus-free ] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
