John, try writing to freebsd-questions@freebsd.org. FreeBSD-Newbies is not at all like the Linux newbies group which has a similar name. FreeBSD-Newbies is for social chat and orientation only, and support questions or answers are off topic here. That way can keep all of the support in the one place (freebsd-questions), and maintain a high quality of support there with peer review, while having a separate place where newbies can be social among equals, boast, let off steam, without having to worry about the signal to noise ratio. Good luck with your question, and sorry about any confusion. You'll also find the list charters spelled out in the handbook on the web site. The charter should be made clear wherever this address is found, but I suspect that's not always the case. Oh yes, here we do help each other to find documentation and to select the most appropriate mailing lists :-) -- Regards, -*Sue*- (` () '` <-- a +3 uncursed budgerigar named Einstein To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
