I use the machine as a web/shell server. I usually choose all the distributions except for games, local, and XFree86. I was wondering what's the dist local is for? and do I need it for a shell/web server? I'll appreciate it if someone could tell me before i install and upgrade to -STABLE. Thanks, - Nader To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
