Thanks for the response.  What drivers are available within horde?

As you can guess, I'm just starting out with it.  The interface looks 
fantastic, but found the documentation to be lacking or not centrally 
located.  I have a hard time believing that such a beautifully created 
and looking project would not have a good documentation suite....which 
leads me to believe something I'm doing wrong.

Thanks in advanced for the help!
