I'd like to remind you people of the charter of this mailing list:
FREEBSD-NEWBIES
Newbies activities discussion
We cover any of the activities of newbies that are not already
dealt with elsewhere, including: independent learning and problem
solving techniques, finding and using resources and asking for
help elsewhere, how to use mailing lists and which lists to use,
general chat, making mistakes, boasting, sharing ideas, stories,
moral (but not technical) support, and taking an active part in
the FreeBSD community. We take our problems and support questions
to freebsd-questions, and use freebsd-newbies to meet others who
are doing the same things that we do as newbies.
Most people on this list are newbies, so it's not a good place to ask
technical questions. This shouldn't be construed as criticism of
Samuel's reply.
