Thank you for responding, but I'm *really* not wanting this to become another discussion on "how high my Oh-levels should be". ;) My question for this discussion is specifically how to prevent overriding a port's own setting for that parm, and to provide a default setting -O[1] when the port does not set it at all? (I'll save my l-o-n-g-e-r reply for later... believe me I have reasons ;) > Kris -- thx, Paul Seniura (in OkC) _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
