We're just looking for more feedback to better the "product". FWIW, the "IP Aliasing" section is also a link to another server so I didn't realize that this was the policy for the tutorials sections. When our stuff is done, or at least in better shape, I certainly have no quims about it residing on the FreeBSD servers as part of the official FreeBSD Documentation Project (assuming it's worthy of such honour) -- the only reason it's not right now is because it's changing so rapidly it would be very inconvenient to have it anywhere except on my server. The bottom line is that any link to increase our visibility would be appreciated. If the Guide can help anyone out, that's all we want - with maybe an added bonus of some feedback so we can make it better. cya, -Mark > > Jordan -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Mayo mark@vmunix.com RingZero Comp. http://www.vmunix.com/mark finger mark@vmunix.com for my PGP key and GCS code ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Win95/NT - 32 bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16 bit patch to an an 8 bit operating system originally coded for a 4 bit microprocessor, written by a 2 bit company that can't stand 1 bit of competition. -UGU
