I agree. And not only base but default shell, login and init scripts. (even though those are not my preferred) Covering more bases would dilute the intensity of the cert. Certify one thing, and certify it well. -- don't certify port stuff, beyond installing them. >Whos to say that I should know how to configure bind if I use tinydns? > Things like this would be simpler if we used 'base' and then built >off of that. right. I don't run bind. but understanding it is essential for communicating with ISP or dealing with somebody else's "standard" install. // George -- George Georgalis, systems architect, administrator Linux BSD IXOYE http://galis.org/george/ cell:646-331-2027 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ BSDCert mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nycbug.org/mailman/listinfo/bsdcert
