I appreciate it, your replies really set the standard

I hope that these newbie questions do not create too much noise on this forum. Perhaps you could have a own section for these kind of questions, so that people who are "serious" are not annoyed.
I guess one could always search more on the web and go through books and man-files. But if the OS per se is not the center of ones universe, it is hard to put that much effort into resolving these problems on your own. Therefore until the data-base of posts on this forum is not so big that you can find most answers by searching the posts here, I hope that this is ok, Of course the person asking questions should not come and expect to get served with answers, but instead be grateful for any help that he/she gets.
But that is just my opinion, perhaps the BSD systems is not an alternative for regular lazy windows users.
