The FAQ would seem to imply that this is not possible (it doesn't mention otherwise), but who knows? :) -- FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE 5:23PM up 17 days, 4:06, 21 users, load averages: 0.23, 0.09, 0.05 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
