I'm a huge Gnome fan. However, for administration, I mostly refuse to touch GUI configurators. When I update the configuration of a complex system, I want to know *exactly* what's being changed. Furthermore, after learning how to configure different programs, I find 'vi complex-program.conf' to be extremely user-friendly. Most config files are more well-documented than their GUI counterparts. -- Kirk Strauser The Strauser Group - http://www.strausergroup.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
