It's a place for newbies to find WHERE to get help. It's for telling people about all the trouble you went through to get xxx working for the first time. It's for discussing things related to being/for/about newbies in the FreeBSD world. It is NOT a technical support forum. Newbie questions are not only engouraged in -questions, they are welcomed there. > I may be on the wrong one.... I am looking for info on BSD.

If you want links to places to get help, I'd check www.freebsddiary.org, the Handbook, www.defcon1.org (if I remeber right,) and www.mostgraveconcern.com for help on your topics of interest.
