Thanks alot to everyone that helped me with my cd mount, adding a
multiport board, and kernel config questions!

New questions for FreeBSD 2.0:

1. Is there a way to lock the serial ports at a particular speed, which
seems to be needed in DOS or OS/2 to keep throughput optimised or
is this unnecessary?

2. Is there any shareware/freeware/public domain BBS programs out
there? And where can I ftp it? Any recommendations or suggestions if
there is more than one as to the best choice?

3. Does Toor need a password set for security? I noticed it has an *
now. Any other users that installed in the system that I should be
concerned about (except Root of course) the password?
