HEy:: I quit out of portupgrade when it tried to pull over 200MB
of stuff, did a pkgdb -Fv; then found the the new xdm actually works!
So I am back with two or more xterms/Konsoles and able to type for
legibally. Dunno what happened but aint asking no questions....
At least now I will be able to use my 4-port KVM switch to mv back and
forth from here on ethic [Server] to tao [Desktop], and have fewer
troubles.

i am actually serving my own DNS for 209.180.213.209-//213. No
ethic, my doomain disappeares from the world.
Note that friends say that I am a bit nuts to do this myself; they
thingk I should just pay somebody to host my sites. There is
www, jottings, journey, transfinite, the site that hosts my library
writing group, and the site that hosts my friends busuiness site.

Somehow, with "^nameserver 8.8.8.8" added to my /etc/resolv.conf got
even my firfox webserver working on "tao". Not now.
Now that you know that I acutally have ns1.thought.org [[
==ethic.thought.org ]]; that is serves my DNS, what next? I admit to
only having glanced at the new bind97. At 01:30 I was helping my
daughter with an English paper.
