* David Stein (dstein@mediaone.net) [990903 21:03]: >I'd like to suggest that I haven't seen IRC listed as a resource for FreeBSD. Currently there is at least two IRC channels on EFNET and I haven't looked at other servers. Comparatively, there are tons of linux support channels, and the NetBSD IRC channel has more people than the two FreeBSD IRC channels. Hmmm Then you never tried #FreeBSD on Undernet or EFNet before. >Its great to be able to go to an email list for help. But sometimes its just as good to go to an IRC channel to chat and get a quick tip. But this only works if there are plenty of people there so you can get a couple of opinions and hopefully an expert or two who likes to hang out in chat. WARNING: get a clue first. IRC is what it is, chat, and a lot of clue can be gotten there, but don't forget to RTFM [with a silent `f'] first, lest you like to get embarrased a little ;) Cheerio, -- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven asmodai(at)wxs.nl The BSD Programmer's Documentation Project <http://home.wxs.nl/~asmodai>; Network/Security Specialist BSD: Technical excellence at its best Things do not change, we change.
