Many thanks to all (Stuart, thanks for tips on posting) for your
you're welcome,
help. I guess I didn't rtfm very well. I didn't realize that c:

Hello to all.
Sorry to start off this way, but I'm a complete noob to openbsd. So, please
forgive if I ask stoopid, boring questions. I will try to rtfm and search
for solutions to my issues before posting here.
