Again, I am happy to trudge through the process. I have been a UNIX power-user/SQL Programmer/Oracle DBA since '92, currently supporting (cough) PeopleSoft. I'd really like to expand my skillset (especially because I am getting bored) and, it seems that Linux is the skillset to develop. So, I appreciate the help and patience that those who have gone before us show us newbies on this list. And, thanks for the tip. I'll make use of Bugzilla.
