Jeff,

Has anybody offered to help you yet?

Although I am not as knowledgeable as most of the people who subscribe to =
this 
list, I would be glad to offer my assistance anyway.

For the life of me, I cannot understand how one of the FreeBSD=92s leaders=
 would 
just respond to tell you that the list was not the place for questions lik=
e yours. He 
could of at least tried to point you in the right direction.

If I were you I might consider checking out NetBSD or OpenBSD because mayb=
e 
the organization which controls the direction of the operating systems mig=
ht be 
more inclined to welcome a person who is new to the world of open source 
software.

Please email me personally if there is anything I can do to help.

Cheers
