Two things I can think of offhand: For FreeBSD-specific things (such as how to handle packages), take a peek at the FreeBSD Handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.html For general help with Unix commands, try the command "apropos". For instance, to find commands which have something to do with passwords, issue the command "apropos password". This should give you a list of manual pages which are appropriate to the keyword. -- V Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
