Thanks, I had planned to only load those programs I needed, after checking for links. > > I looked around and couldn't find it > > Slackware 3.5 has a handy contents directory.

It seems it would really help a lot to have it on my BasicLinux machine. Sorry to ask such a simple question, but I'm new to BasicLinux and to Slackware and am still learning the ropes. I am also at work now so I don't have access to my BasicLinux computer, I'll check when I get home this evening. On another issue, I read that BasicLinux has smbfs support compiled in, is the full samba package necessary to mount a remote Windows file system on BasicLinux, or is the included BasicLinux networking sufficient? I have been at Unix for a while including, Xenix, SCO Unix, Openserver, SunOS, Solaris, and SuSE so I think I can work through the learning curve pretty quickly. I appreciate your patience and assistance. > Cheers, > Steven > -- Rob Steinmetz To unsubscribe from SURVPC send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe SURVPC in the body of the message.
