I've looked through my new installation and can't seem to find one. 2) How about virtual console support? 3) Is there a utility for adjusting the kernel timezone offset or must I recompile a new one? 4) Should I really be using the NetBSD-current distribution instead? Thanks in advance to anyone who can take the time to answer :) Mike -- Mike Zanker | Email: A.M.Zanker@open.ac.uk Network Services Group | The Open University | Tel: +44 1908 652726 Milton Keynes, UK |
