Yup--that's where it was.  Glibs.

However, also upgraded to X 4.2 on FreeBSD last night, and I'm finding that 
it's not working as well as 4.1 did (on the one box that I have running 
X4.2, so this isn't a very scientific observation).  So, I'm not too 
worried about that one.

I haven't done any real upgrading however, save for upgrading the kernel as 
Mr. Robbins suggested, (though I haven't noticed any real speed increase) 
so I was fortunate enough to avoid being hit with the password issue that 
you guys are running into recently.

I get one half day there if I'm lucky.  As I hope to pass out resumes, I 
have to be sure it's not the day that my boss goes there.  :)

Scott who is tired of working in a primarily MS environment where his job 
seems to
consist of mainly saying, 'Hrrm, why don't we reboot that bad boy and see 
what happens?"
