This is the beginners list, after all, according to the Handbook -- not one of the more specialized lists where expectations of RTFM are more appropriate. Note that even on other lists the OP is being treated with a much more open mind (ex. see his bhyve thread on -virtualization@) -- Aryeh M. Friedman, Lead Developer, http://www.PetiteCloud.org
