I guess you have -not- been involved with SUSE for very long. There used to be -two- books one of which was an admin book which is no longer available. And now there is -no- pdf replacement. What a shame, a very good distro going to the dogs. I can just imagine what the bean counters were saying: "If we stop shipping the admin book and the sources DVD no one will notice and we can save $X.00 per box" Well many people have noticed and they also noticed the price drop as well. If Novell had kept the price the same and included the admin book and the sources DVD --many-- more people would be much happier and would be buying the distro instead of just downloading the distro. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
