Jan, Nice "conf" file, (now try that with the GUI only, and submit those instructions to the wiki) but it still does nothing to improve teaching the process to the uninitiated windows convert, aka "GUI Slaves". However wonderful and useful the command line is to us old hacks(15 year Netware guy here), the guy supporting 150 or even 15 pc's (the bread and butter market) who wants to cut costs on his W2K3 server licensing by replacing windblows with SuSE, is far from having the time to learn and use it...let alone find and sift through 5 or 10 docs related to SuSE 7, 8 or even the now obsolete 9, of course there are those "meatwhistles" that will argue that he shouldn't be targeted, but, they usually live in their mothers basement and think DHCP is a bad idea, need I say more.... -- James Tremblay Director of Technology Newmarket School District Newmarket,NH http://en.opensuse.org/Education "let's make a difference" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
