Neither of these files should be cusomized, and both will be (and should be) replaced the next time you update this machine. Make sure you backup /etc and all subdirectories before you do the next upgrade, in case the machine's behaviour changes enough that you have to search through the old versions to see see what was going on! -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
