Newbie or not, I have been using FreeBSD for a long time. Someone bought me 
the O'Reilly book, Managing NFS and NIS. Trying for hours on end to mount a 
symlink off one of my servers only to find in the end, that although the book 
says you can mount symlinks, the man (5) exports page clearly says you cannot 
mount symlinks.

And then people tell me that man pages are archaic! 
Heh....man pages are invaluable to keeping your hair _on_ your head
