Do I forever have to use too high serials? i have heard that the serial number wraps from 2^31 -1 back to 0.....so set your serial number to 2^31 -1, wait for it to propagate, set it to 0, wait for it to propagate, set it to whatever you want. ;) jmb To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
