I forgot one more important thing. Subscribe to this list -- FreeBSD-questions and probably at least FreeBSD-announce and maybe FreeBSD-newbies and read through all the discussions. Some you will learn to ignore and you will also learn to filter out the flame wars - which are surprisingly few on the FreeBSD lists, compared to some others. Once you have read and tried things in the handbook, if you have more specific questions - and you will - then post them to this or one of the other FreeBSD lists or the list for which ever port you are trying to manage. People here are pretty good about answering questions if you have made the good effort to find answers yourself, but can get a little sarcastic, if it is apparent that you haven't done your homework yet. ////jerry > Connie Webb > Montgomery County Courts > Helpdesk Specialist > 41 N.
