Hi Adam, Well, OpenBSD mailing lists have their own netiquette[0] so it would be nice if one did one's homework before posting such basic questions. Documentation (manual pages[1] and the FAQ[2]) is there for a reason and people work hard to write it all down and keep it up to date. Minimum effort is a requirement. > Just so you know when I graduated from high school back in the > early 70s, the personal computer, the pager or beeper, mobile or > cell phone, internet, smartphones, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS, Linux, > OpenBSD weren't invented yet.
