That's > ok, we all still know that it's got BSD in there somewhere! *nod* I specifically left it out because... well, I'd say 99% of the people running OS/X run it as MacOS, not as BSD, so it's irrelevant to them anyway. And the 1% running it as BSD are pre-existing BSD people anyway :) Thanks, -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd@over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is because I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet"
