Since the last questin seemed to spark so much interest and conversation, I figured I'd try again ... Does anyone know why the wheel group is called "wheel"? I mean, why not "admins" or something like that. "wheel" certainly is a cryptic name for the administrators group. Anyone have any idea why it's called "wheel"? -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com
