Personally I think people who just scoff at those who haven't quite got it yet don't deserve FreeBSD. Even someone asked a question that is answered on the front page of the FreeBSD website I would *kindly* tell them where they can find the answer. > I really wish you wouldn't have forwarded my message.

You have much better chances of getting it answered in -questions. If you're not subscribed to -questions, you can put a note at the top (or bottom) of your message saying that you aren't subscribed and thusly need e-mailed replies. In most instances, your e-mail address is kept in the To or CC headers and you get e-mailed replies automatically. In any case, it breaks the charter to ask tech-support questions in -newbies. -- dpilgrim@uswest.net ICQ: 29880099 gryph@mindless.com PGP DH/DSS key available If you're gonna build a house of cards, use the plastic coated kind Cuz I'll bet the homeowner's insurance won't cover flood damage To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
