dselect displays newly-available packages first, then installed packages for which there is an upgrade, then other installed packages, finally packages which are not installed. It takes a lot of paging to work your way down the list. You can search for samba by typing "/samba". This will find the first occurance. Typing "\" will show subsequent occurances of "samba" in a package name. -- Bob Nielsen, N7XY (RN2) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tucson, AZ DM42nh QRP-L #1985 SOC #77 http://www.primenet.com/~nielsen
