Not too far from the truth...I needed to get an updated version of IPSec
running on a CD to support some new users in our corperate network with
dynamic IP's.

I did get the e-mail earlier, just forgot to reply :(

Not a problem...

This is where doc-book comes in.  I don't know if there are decent tools for
writing Doc-Book formatted documents on windows yet, but once written, it
translates cleanly to plain-text, HTML, PDF, and probalby other formats...

IMHO, if we don't write in Doc-Book, we should probably just use plain text.

See any of the many linux HOWTO's at linuxdoc, including the HOWTO-HOWTO,
which discusses writing documents using the DocBook format.
