Yes, but he does his service reliably and inexpensively, and my duty cycle is
not small.

The filters are just shell scripts. I have this as far as it adjusted. The
four programs are available on BSD. Do not understand why this will not run.

I find annoying. If you have a great operating system, and must again be
annoyed by vendors. I've tested enough and Linux systems on my Pentium 4
computer, FreeBSD and Gentoo are the best choice.
