I need to kill it and it wont even start if the internet is not ON. Also, it frequently cause a swap_off. I have 32 meg of ram and a P200. I think I need 64. -- [Malartre][malartre@aei.ca][http://www.aei.ca/~malartre/] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
