We also have decided to compile 1 kernel for each type of machine. We have decided (for security reasons) not to use modules AT ALL. There are quite a few modules in use in various rootkits that hide the rootkit and do other nasty things, loadable modules are a luxury that we are only going to allow on Desktops or in special cases. -- Blake Barnett (bdb) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sr. Unix Administrator DevelopOnline.com office: 480-377-6816 Learning is a skill, you get better at it with practice.
