May I add since I started this...something on the website that
indicates you can search for terms login_getglass or relative terms.
The only time I ever thought of searching the archives etc was if I had
a specific term like search install , xwindows XSERVER , sendmail, ...
I didn't think of searching for error messages at all. I am new to all
this and I do try to get the answers on my own. I have the docs handbook
etc ....installed and have used them.....even gone to the website to
get answers ,,,
I didn't mean to cause any problems I appreciate FreeBSD and these lists.
I have learned quit alot as well. Enough to have landed a job as a
systems operator/admin. I can get around on a UNIX system and some
people even think I know what I am doing. I don't but it's sure
fun learning this stuff. ;-) I am looking forward to one day be able
to contribute to FreeBSD in whatever way I can.
Really Thanks alot !!!!!!!!!!
Thank You !
