One useful option might be "i don't even know what this is, and i've been adminning freebsd systems for 10 years"
;) Somethings I only do when they are broken, as well, some things I don't even know what they are or how to fix them until they are broken, then at that point i research how to fix them. I find that 80% of a good admin is someone that can figure stuff out, a guru is someone that just knows. Jeff.
