so, what are your problems? Asking questions to get the answer is nearly an art, too. If described precisely, an answer to problems is found usually. Sometimes it helped reformulating my question when it did not lead to the solution needed. Folks here in this list have pointed me usually to the right direction when I have had any problem -- the full solution to the respective problem I could nearly never get just for free; but that's learning.... I have never felt offended by answer telling me that I propably should take a look there, or similar. However, one has to take precautions on what to write not to accuse anybody for anything not done -- it's a permanent record of the poster.... Feel free to contact me for help setting up your box -- better, write to the list. wbr, Lukas -- Lukas Ruf | Wanna know anything about raw | <http://www.lpr.ch> | IP? -> <http://www.rawip.org> | eMail Style Guide: <http://www.rawip.org/style.html>|
