	You want to do this under -CURRENT, as opposed to -STABLE, right?

	I'd be interested to know how it would be done, and as part of

currently installed on the machine I can play with at the moment).  I 
can't help you with doing this under -CURRENT, however.

  Unix is like a wigwam -- no Gates, no Windows, and an Apache inside.
   Unix is very user-friendly.  It's just picky who its friends are.
