This is fine, since the lagg(4) driver first appeared in FreeBSD 7.0 (or even more correctly, it _will_ first appear in the FreeBSD 7.0, as the FreeBSD 6.3 will be released after 7.0-RELEASE. > FreeBSD 4.11 April 17, 2007 FreeBSD= 4.11 > And why FreeBSD 4.11 when I ask 7.0? This line is correct as well, because the cgi script is running on FreeBSD 4.11 system. > Thanks, > Jo=E3o Rocha. I hope that my answers helped to you. Please let me know if the man page installed on your system successfuly. --=20 Best regards, Daniel Gerzo mailto:danger@FreeBSD.org
