List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi Janina, Thanks for the welcome. I must admit though, that I'm not totally new to the list as I was a member 2 years ago, and only dropped off when I traded my old Redhat 6.2 box for a plough truck. Here in Maine plogh trucks are somewhat important and at the time I thought I was getting the better end of the deal, but for a while now I haven't been too sure. Ever since then I've been intending to put together another linux box, but until recently I have just been dragging my feet. Ten to 15 years ago I was working on a VAX VMS system and after that a Xenix system, so Linux isn't that big of a transition, just a challenge for memory retention. To whoever it was complaining about the Windows header nonsense, I must apologize as I don't have my modem installed yet on my Linux box as I've been trying to work out the kimks, and the next thing on my agenda is getting a CDR installed, and then after that a modem. I've sort of been protecting my second serial port for use as a terminal hook up until I'm satisfied, but as already seen, this can be a burden as well as an asset. Thanks, Dave Talmage
