I was wondering about this notation on the page though: Note:The archive search index was last rebuilt at Thursday, 08 Feb 2007 06:16:51 UTC. Any postings after that will not be found by a search. Index rebuild is usally done once every 24 hours for this list. You can use a "View by date" link below to access more recent postings. Is there any specific reason that the archive has not been re-index in over three years? I don't remember the date of the post I wasx referring to, so that could become a rather long process. -- Carmel ✌ carmel...@hotmail.com |::::======= |::::======= |=========== |=========== | Spelling is a lossed art. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
