I have been using FreeBSD for a couple years now and use it in a professional setting. The times I have had to go research concepts I didnt fully grasp, or try to implement something I didn't quite understand I always found the answers in the documentation. If for some reason the documentation was not helpful I would go email some people I have met over the years or join one of the many FreeBSD IRC support channels. These people have always been helpful and even polite. Sure there are the few exceptions, but that is normal for any group of people anywhere. There are always the few bad apples. And there is a big difference between being rude and unhelpful and trying to spark some independant thought. -- Erich Zigler Sr. System Administrator On-line, adj.: The idea that a human being should always be accessible to a computer.
