This may go very well with my next set of enhancements to sysinstall.. I noticed when installing BSD/OS (I finally decided to take a good look at 2.0!) that they offer you the chance to configure a web server, which is actually nothing more than 3 prompts asking you for your company name, email address and general info - all of which gets stuck into a default home page for the new server. Very simple, but it gives instant gratification to the hopeful server installer and BSDI took this opportunity to put a clever little "Powered by BSD/OS 2.0" with the BSDI logo at the bottom of the page. Most likely, your average customer will think that's cool and leave it in (or not even know how to remove it :-). That's good advertising. I want it and the feature for automated server configuration (for which I'm always willing to entertain suggestions) WILL be going into 2.1... :-) Jordan
