GNU/Linux(TM)'s 'documentation' is one of the reasons for search engines. SCNR, but it was worth it ;) timo > -- > Henning Brauer, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] > BS Web Services, http://bsws.de > Full-Service ISP - Secure Hosting, Mail and DNS Services > Dedicated Servers, Rootservers, Application Hosting - Hamburg & > Amsterdam
