I had downloaded and burnt to disc freebsd, pcbsd and also desktopbsd. But not now Having 21 computers here I figured I would finally be rid of MSwindows, and have a complete LAN system that was more reliable. Seven computers I have tried with all three BSDs and not one of them managed to produce a working network connection. The only thing I achieved was that now I can almost visualise every screen from the installations. I am baffled by how anyone is able to get a bsd networked system working. I guess I just have to stick with a windowsOS. Regards ... Ian Galloway _________ Live simply, love blindly, care deeply, speak kindly. Leave the rest to God...
