If the motivation is solid enough, I can give the 2.2.5-2.2.6 changes a try, but it is exceedingly difficult for me to manage my machines as they are now. I have to run other OSen also.

There is a serious difference in personalities amongst the various U**X clones!!! -- John | Never try to teach a pig to sing, dyson@freebsd.org | it just makes you look stupid, jdyson@nc.com | and it irritates the pig.
