From what I could tell from mailing list archives, etc. It looked like there was some need to have this set one way or the other, no matter what... though maybe I misinterpreted that... Or as Jordan just suggested, cut it out entirely. As far as that goes, it looks like USAResident could be taken out of the globals too... make it (and my USAResValid) statics in configMake_conf(), have that function ask the question. Though I have not checked to see if configMake_conf() is called running this in scripted mode. I'm willing to take a look. - Tim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
