There are a number of things for you to learn: 1) Postings that start on mailing lists stay on mailing lists. It's considered rude to single out someone to pump them for additional information. 2) Your email client is broken. It does not properly "quote" previous emails. Notice how your response and mine have the same number of ">". This can usually be fixed via configuration options. 3) You top-posted. Please do a google search on top-posting to understand the reasons why it is bad, I'm not going to repeat them all here. 4) Folks who can't do their own research usually don't last very long in the OSS world. I'm not saying that to be rude, it's just my personal observation. It's understandable not to know where to start, but a comment such as "have a look at webmin" should give you enough to feed to a search engine that you wouldn't need to ask a one-line question like you did. So, your next step is to get some practice with a search engine and at least get past the simple questions on webmin. We'll be happy to help out with details or problems. -- Bill Moran Collaborative Fusion Inc.
