What would the difference be with FreeBSD? It > would NOT do what RH 5.1 does? Hey, you guys have been really great! Some of the stuff you said is like, waaaayyy over my head, so I better get going on learning about all this UNIX stuff. The learning curve is way steep, but I think it's worth it... not to mention that I kinda like the challenge. I do believe I'm going to drop RH 5.1 Linux and install FreeBSD. I really hate to disappoint ol' Linus, but a guy's gotta do what a guy's gotta do. ;o) Thanks again you guys, I really appreciate this, and I know where to go if I have more questions... speaking of which: what do you mean by "ports"? The only ports I know are the serial and printer ports in the back of my box. I'd really like to learn to do this right. Cao. -- G.R.
