Hi Jordan, I would be happy to help with proof-reading and things like that. I don't think I possess the technical skills to write any documents yet but I would definitely be willing to do whatever I could with proof-reading and reviewing things. I was also thinking about writing something like a "Windows-users guide to FreeBSD". Something that might explain the FreeBSD stuff in more of a "Windows-speak" since i'm more familiar with Windows than I am with FreeBSD at this point; but i'm open to suggestions. Let me know where to go and what to do and i'll help! ;-) -- John Cavanaugh "There can be only one."

I have a question about DNS issue. I don't know where I can specify my DNS in the FreeBSD 2.0.5. I can't find DNS part in sysconfig (I mean under /etc directory of course I can use hosts table but this table is not for general internet use). This system will be used as our Usenet News testing server. I don't know how to configure the system to server as Usenet News server (I only know that I need to enable the NNTP port of /etc/services). Can anyone out there help me to figure it out? Since the file name, etc is differnet with our HP-UX systems, I can't fully follow the HP-UX manuals. Thanks in advance! Ruiyuan Jiang System Administrator ADVANTAGE kbs, Inc.

Can anyone out there help me to Get INN, read the Install.ms file and the FAQ. After that, read them again. Install INN and get a news feed.
