ALSO NOTE: networking and timezone modules now look like bsdconfig and are = consistent with other features. ASIDE: I'm going to try and start a trend -- that the progname be the same = as the argument (e.g. host-setup is now named "networking"; to make it easi= er to remember which command invokes it from bsdconfig first-arg). --=20 Devin _____________ The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidentia= l.
