Ok! So now I appoint you as my quality control manager - but if it is not
right you must supply the patches! :)

I have just committed updates to the chapter on Network Browsing. These should
appear in the published documentation on all major mirror sites within 24
hours.
I'd appreciate fixes, updates, panic attacks, flogging, and public humiliation

modifications were perfect and will immediately withdraw rights to all future
complaining about the HOWTO. (hehehehe!!) :)
