Hi Marc, Nice! I just read the "New" Bits in the manual with all the new "Sugary" Syntax goodness, so I'm ok with the config now. Just need to move a few things around here to get online and then it's good to go. :) Thanks for mentioning the --fast switch. I may very well try that going forward and I am sure that you are right about the age of the version I've got. I probably should have gone straight to what's hot and built cleanly on hydra (I think I was a little too eager to get nix again now that I have a machine for it.) I've spotted some very nice changes in configuration.nix that I'll definately use and I'm guessing that wpa_supplicant isn't on the disc because it depends on openssl?.. But openssl is an optional dep. Thanks, Tony _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.cs.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
