I should know better than to respond to one of your emails, but here is the list charter: -- FREEBSD-SECURITY Security issues FreeBSD computer security issues (DES, Kerberos, known security holes and fixes, etc). This is a technical mailing list for which strictly technical content is expected. -- The last sentence is intended to be read as "...as opposed to a forum for support questions": -- FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send ``how to'' questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. -- Kris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
