Things worked fine (needed to put out a mail server and did not want to wait for my Subscription). At any rate what are the catpages? I did a search on the mail archive and got only one hit from 1997 that basically said that cat pages were accidentely there (in that case) I am sure this is no longer the case. I realize it is documention but what is the relationship to manpages? Also in the Samba 2.0.6 Release the following is in the WHATSNEW.txt: 20). MSG_WAITALL optimisation removed due to bugs in FreeBSD. ^^^^???? They way this sounds is that FreeBSD is full of bugs (at least in the TCP/IP section). I would classify FreeBSD as just the opposite. What do they mean by this? In my mind this would be a "work arround" untill the bug gets fixed, or it only a bug from a point of view? Thanks John John C.
