Tom, Everyone, I had a quick request. Perhaps the Samples could be bundled with the distributions, and stuck in the doc directory. If they already are and I am just messed up, please let me know. Thanks, Joshua

I also fear that packaging the samples with the distribution would give people one more convenient way to bypass the documentation (given that the documentation is no longer packaged with the distributions). -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ teastep@shorewall.net
