If you want a response immediately then pay money to one of the many FreeBSD consultants/contractors. I'll make you a deal, even - if you guarentee to pay me the same rate that Microsoft charges for tech support on their products ($35 an incident) I will personally provide you with an answer to any question you want to ask - at the $35 per question rate, of course, and with the exact same disclaimers that Microsoft gives you for their $35 incidents. Oh and I almost forgot - since it's the same terms as the Microsoft support, that means you have to buy the copy of FreeBSD from me - and I think my going rate on that is the same as Windows Server, which is something like $800 a copy. ;-) (you have after all said FreeBSD isn't a desktop OS) ;-) > > Also, I don't generally answer questions that I have to do a lot of > > digging on because the questioner didn't put in enough data.

On bended knee? Just keep asking periodically. Or, you could e-mail the developer of the SCSI device driver directly, it's not hard to read the source and see who it is, and their e-mail addresses are on the FreeBSD website. Ted
