Hehe, sorry about that. I was young and stupid. ;)

It's a small world isn't it?

Sounds interesting, I'll give it a try. If it works I can simply
make my script do the above at the end to fix the labels (instead
of reinventing the wheel like it does at the moment).

Thanks, Tom. Out of interest, how is TrustedBSD coming along? I
don't track -CURRENT and even in -STABLE there are still warnings
about apropriateness for production use. I find it pretty much does
all that I require (even if setting it up isn't the most enjoyable
of procedures!) but I'm always interested to know how things are
progressing.

Thanks,
Mark
