In this case there isn't. i JUST suggested a change. you claimed my change is pointless. it tells people that firewall_enable='no' doesn't just disable the firewall, it really just disables the running of the script so i still say RTFM. when we do (and we will, it's inevitable) find problems with the manual, we make the changes for the next group of people. -Justin White just6979@yahoo.com http://justinfinity.2y.net/ AIM:just6979 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
