Thanks for the tips! I also sent the same mail to focus-linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, so if you are interesting in the topic, you may want to look what people are answering there to :) I had to send the mail two times because linux-admin rejected my mail the first time. If anyone else have some more info, I will be happy to read and learn from them! Thanks -- Lars On Fri, Nov 21, 2008 at 2:06 PM, Daniel A.
