Mark Peveto here, Well friend, that wasn't real helpful. The page kept refreshing every time I tried to read it so I couldn't get anywhere. If someone can just get me a straight set of instructions, that'd be helpful. I've already been on several internet pages about the subject, and end up running into some command they suggest not working, or a file can't be found, etc. Really, I gotta get this done, and i'm hitting more brick walls than i need at this point. I spent several hours working on this yesterday afternoon, so if you're hearing frustration, that's why. Thanks folks. Mark Peveto Registered Linux user number 600552 Everything happens after coffee!
