On the other hand a new systems or network type would probably figure out the information observing a system or network. The question is whether there're files or commands that could theoretically give the information. I've seen people with expertise do this to their delight ! It just doesn't make any sense that the information isn't available except by oral accounts. The question is what are some of those files or commands?.... cheers! and kind regards, oo__ don Warner saklad http://my.gnus.org/Members/dsaklad
