I loaded everything but the XFree stuff. Now I want to go back and install that off of the CD-ROM but I don't know the appropriate command sequence. On my older BSDI system I would mount the cdrom drive and then invoke a package add script , what is the procedure for this system? Where can I find the necessary documentation to help me better administer this system? Is it the O'Reiley books? Thanks in advance, Ken Miller kmiller@wimsey.bc.ca or kmiller@mdd.comm.mot.com
