I agree, but too often people use RTFM for no other purpose than to punish. RTFM and come back when you've done your home work. Worse than useless. RTFM this HOWTO. Better. Sounds like you might have a problem with /etc/foo.conf. RTFM this HOWTO to get some ideas what to look for. My preferred answer. It's not always possible to be so specific, but many of us stumbled over the same things when we started. And the confidence gained from a fairly quick solution makes it more likely that a newbie will RT their own FM when the next problem comes up. I know it did for me. -- Bud Rogers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> KD5SZ
