Apart from anything else almost configuration item in Linux is plain text, so you can find and tweak almost anything if you can use the command line tools and one of the many text editors. Try that with Windows, with all its undocumented and obfuscated configuration data. Its worth knowing how to use vi/vim too, because they need so little support to work - just the dumbest terminal and not even arrow or function keys. Some day knowing it *will* get you out of a situation, data intact, where all you could do with Windows would be to wipe the disk and reinstall. Martin
