Sure, it's okay for the next week or so, but if someone records this answer we just get questions why they can't find it when it is moved... In fact I think the FreeBSD archive has been on 3 separate drives in the last year... Gary -- Gary Palmer FreeBSD Core Team Member FreeBSD: Turning PC's into workstations.
