I guess at this point I'll patch a system here and begin testing with it, and hopefully PJD or PHK or somebody else @freebsd will respond with any plans to roll this functionality into the base system. It's really not a problem if there is no plans to do it, I just don't want to spend a lot of time fiddling with a patch and then find it in the base system in 5.4 or something. -- Justin Hopper UNIX Systems Engineer BSDHosting.net Hosting Division of Digital Oasys Inc. http://www.bsdhosting.net
