I spent *thousands* of hours working on FreeBSD, and I've yet to see any help from you. And, I haven't received a *dime* for all of my work. > I make NOTHING, ZERO, ZILCH on FreeBSD...I sell routers at ZERO > profit as a service to my board customers. I make NOTHING, ZERO, ZILCH on FreeBSD, and haven't for over 4 years.

Id contribute if I had the time....but I dont. You've got plenty of time to post insulting comments, so you must have some free time on your hands. Also, you *expect* folks on the list to use their time to answer your questions about setting up FreeBSD boxes to *help* you out, most notably asking questions about getting serial lines working, multi-port serial cards, etc... Again, it's a two way street Dennis, but somehow that doesn't fit into your model, which seems to be 'I get what I want, and when I don't I throw a fit until someone gives me what I want.' Nate
