Well, I had assumed you would have done it the right way. :-)

You *know* I'm the big windows98 wennie around here. :-) However, with my
new Powerbook g3 500mhz running OSX that is going to become less and less
of the case. :-) This machine rocks. :-)

Yes, definitely. The / was not implying the root directory...just root of

Exactly why I stated that having it in one file would be fine.

large battery/generator backup for important servers is cheap for a
company like Sun. :-) even my isp in berkeley that is run out of my
friends basement at his house has a diesel generator in his back yard. :-)
my ISP is up, but my house is down. lol!
