Not long ago, I took a working FreeBSD 5.x system on my local network,
(whose name is "shiny") wiped the disk clean, and then installed from
scratch FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE. I then configured it as best as I could
to get it to behave as much as possible like the old/prior 5.x system.

Hi all,
I have an ADSL connection at home.
