Ditto! I too own a 4th edition print, It's in the server room along with a copy of UNIX Power Tools, BSD Hacks, Absolute BSD, The camel books, and a few others I can't remember.... I try to buy every major BSD book, even if it's just to help support the community. Thanks for all the hard work you've done to build and support the community and thanks for open sourcing the book, karma bonus points for you! -- BSD Podcasts @ http://bsdtalk.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
