Hi Michael, have a quick search on the web - there are several pages with explanations on how other people has done it. Don't worry too much if the page says Linux variant x, y or z - most of the software used should work on FreeBSD - just check the software's pages ....they may even be in ports (like lighty,etc)... good luck :) _________________________ {Beto|Norberto|Numard} Meijome "I'm not afraid of dying, I just don't want to be there when it happens."
