Its there now but it drew my attention to the fact that it was not printing the British pound sign but instead was giving a hash on the command prompt and \ax3 in text files ( which it consequently prints ). If I change my keytable from uk.iso to uk.cp850 then i get nothing other than a beep on the command line and \x9c in text files which again it prints. Does anyone know how I can resolve this - possibly I need to ammend the keytable or is it something else ? Another unrelated question - does sendmail fetch my mail or do I need another progran such as stmpd ? Yet another - I have 2 boxes one running 4.0-CURRENT and the other running 3.0-RELEASE, they were networked but since my last upgrade this is no longer the case - the problem is that I have only one attached to a monitor - bit short of desk space !, and it is a right pain in the ass to disconnect the monitor and attach it to the other box to tweek the settings again. Is there a way I can do it from tis box - the original setup included NIS !? cheers for any help To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
