Go to http://www.perl.com and search on "Mail::Audit". :-) To Sung Cho: please go out and take an MSF course, buy yourself a motorcycle, and go enjoy those excellent roads not too far from you (Blue Ridge Parkway, etc.--esp. VA 16 through Hungry Mother State Park). I think it will do wonders for your attitude. For further attitude adjusting, continue on up to West Virginia and ride around the New River Gorge Area.. To bring this back to FreeBSD: I've been running FreeBSD as a desktop (except at work :-( ) for a couple of years now, and I've been very happy with it. Speed? Heck, I just pulled 110 MFLOPs out of a LINPACK benchmark on my 1.333 GHz T-Bird (DDR SDRAM *almost* makes this box the equivalent of Kent's dual coppermine). It'll be interesting to build an SMP box based upon AMD CPUs. That will probably also cut my winter heating bill. :-) Praise be to Jordan and the whole FreeBSD team. One of these days (perhaps soon), I'll finally make a contribution. -- Chris BeHanna Software Engineer (Remove "bogus" before responding.) behanna@bogus.zbzoom.net I was raised by a pack of wild corn dogs.
