Everybody knows that you did four things wrong:

1. Failed to read and act upon the error message that you posted
   (which does provide the right solution).

2. Sent a message to the freebsd-stable list that should have
   been posted to freebsd-questions.

3. Sent a message to a list without having attended to (1)
   above and thought about what you were doing.

4. Composed your email with Outlook Express.
