I was introduced to FreeBSD by a friend. He spent quite a bit of time in email and on AIM helping me and I spent a *lot* of time hunting down WWW pages and references. I'm still learning. But, I can say with "Complete" confidence that the one resource which helped me the most was my purchase of The Complete FreeBSD, 4th Edition. It's still a very useful reference now and beginning to look a bit dog-eared after being thumbed through so many times ;-) You're contributions to the community are obviously greatly appreciated by many more than just me as evidenced by the other replies already in this thread. This is probably the ultimate icing on the cake with regard to online FreeBSD documentation. Thanks not only for a great book but for now making it available to the whole community. -- Dave _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
