>(Hope that this clarifies the situation.) Also, I sure wish that we >would learn to be more tolerant of apparently innocent questions being >asked. I'd like to second this notion. The -questions mailing list has become very hostile recently to new users, and this is exactly what *should not* happen. The -questions mailing list was designed and created specifically for new users who have "new user" questions. If you are on this list and have a low threshold for these types of questions, please do all of us (and most importantly our new users) a favor and either unsubscribe or answer the questions politely and with high "new user" tolerance. We have many other mailing lists which are not new-user oriented (such as -hackers, -current, -bugs, etc) where your energy can be much better spent. -DG David Greenman Core Team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
