Well I'm on nightshifts atm (day off, or is that night off?), so here I am, it's 05:30, nothing else to do so I'm going to try following that url from start to finish on all 6 machines. I'll let you know how it goes as my main machines is running the V9.0 distro, and the other 5 have V8.2. regards magnet -- Registered Linux user 281659 Registered machines 163839,163840,163841,163842,163843,163844 Home network: 6 x AMD Athlon 1.2 GHz all running Mandrake and token Windows laptop ;-) My home is over-run with penguins that like a warm environment!
