Hi Eric, I could bet, it was on a 32bit environment... :-) IMHO it's been only partly a good deal to take Inter7-support. First of all, it saved you time and money. But especially, if you don't know the internals of such a system and are using it in productive environment e.g. as ISP or in a "bigger" company you might be left alone unless you pay for support every time. I set up all the stuff on other servers a couple of times before and I would do it the same way again: from the bleeding edge. This was the way I learned how it works and which helps me to solve problems in daily business with these machines. But: if you like it the way you did, ok - I like it the other way... Just my $.05... Greetings Tobias
