vladas, It seems you are familiar with attitude of gurus from other mountains... When someone is lucky enough to get help from any one of OpenBSD gurus, the help is nearly always delivered in the form of pointing you to the correct direction, and often includes the bonus of a swift, but friendly, kick in the rear to help you get going on your merry way. Surprisingly, the latter part of the "help" does increase your long term memory of the event, the solution, and how to find the next solution on your own. After a decade of being on the receiving end of such help, I can tell you I've learned a lot from it, and continue to learn from it. jcr
