circumvented by booting via floppy...
There will all ways to the party line drawn between the developers
and the users. Developers want total freedom about how to install
and config while the users wany automated no question asked install.
If FBSD was an commercial product, the developers world would never

Wayne,
I left an SSH connection open to my server last night, and it was still
connected this morning; the amount of time exceeded that of past
sessions when I was unexpectedly disconnected.
I understand your reasoning when stating this is not a configuration

Apparently I'm new enough to FreeBSD that I don't understand you. I ran
