Well, most of us subscribe to more than one list, and we get a lot of e-mail traffic. It's a little irritating getting multiple copies of the same e-mail sent to -questions, -stable, -newbies, -current, -security, -hardware, and whatever else... Just post one copy in one location, if you don't get an answer try somewhere else later. If you're off-topic in the chosen list, someone will let you know :-) Happy New Year! --Dan ** The thing I like most about Windows 98 is... ** You can download FreeBSD with it!
