The Linux system was allowed into the Chase website, the FreeBSD one was not. I ended up using "User Agent Switcher and Manager." The user interface is kind of clunky, but I got it to do what I wanted. And I'll agree with Bob's speculation about one of the developers running Linux. And with parv's remark to the effect of "welcome to 1993." -- Chris Hill chris@monochrome.org
