<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for clarifying that. I guess my question now would be
(cause I am trying to use the book as much as possible to help me understand
FS) is why would the book be insistent on using <span style="font-family:"Courier New"">fs_cli</span>
and how many people actually use it. Is there a wiki discussing how to manage
the mod_event_socket so that <span style="font-family:"Courier New"">fs_cli</span>
will function the way it should instead popping up errors like it has been.</p>

answer to your first question, yes. I guess my next question would be, if I
