I guess that would be a good indicator!
It's the file structure that is killing me... All these different
sub-directories at the root level (These make sense). Then there appears to
be similar sub-directories lower down. This is a bit confusing.
Also I think I realized one part that was loosing me. When I installed
RedHat before I was expecting "something" to happen. Then again I was
sitting at the local console. I imagine things would have been different if
I was coming remote? I guess I am thinking from the BBS SysOp perspective.

different in the Linux world?
Thanks for your time.
