We paid Jake for PCI work and gave him one iNET2325. We also gave an iNET2325 to Doug White. He had done some other work iirc that was committed. The work completed thus far on FreeBSDPRO does fix the pci routing and includes a setup (ports) for a complete email system. I am waiting now for Scott to let us know the costs to get FreeBSDPRO up to 5.1 or 5.2. Once we have enough of that done, many parts of that work will be given to the community. I do apologize for my error. Happy New Year Robert! Regards, Lanny On Wed, 2004-01-07 at 15:56, Robert Watson wrote: > On Wed, 7 Jan 2004, Lanny Baron wrote: > > > What can I tell you.
