Dear Phil, do not post with pgp signed mails unless mailman is able to decrypt it. Your mails are binary attachments in the archive. Since I like pgp signed messages too, please consider to fix mailman. Unfortunately, I do not find my network howto anymore. Do you have deleted it in the wiki for inclusion into the handbook? Why? Btw., the handbook is a little bit "broken", wbx has removed important content from my documentation (the stars mark mandatory parameters) and everything is on one page which is not really web like. We should fix both. Nevertheless, a handbook is a very good idea.
