These options are present in the GENERIC kernel and you probably did not remove them. My guess is the OP did and never realized it.

As far as operator misconfiguring is concerned, UPDATING is not aimed at this. -Mike _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
