Well, what do you know, you're right. Somebody needs to update the=20 Handbook, then, because this is not listed in there anywhere. I had to=20 ddig around in the Release Notes for 5.4 to find any mention of this, and=20 it wasn't too well highlighted in there. Even a note in the FTP directory would have helped. Anyone know what happened to the mini-inst CD? It was really nice to only= =20 have to download a 200 MB ISO instead of a 600 MB one, especially since I=20 don't use packages for anything. =2D-=20 =46reddie Cash fcash@ocis.net
