Top tip: making a noise is incredibly useful for test and small-audience servers. Whenever anything goes wrong, make the computer make a sound, and you can ask whoever has a problem straight away what they were doing, etc. - before they forget, and often while they're still trying to work out what to do. (The server we had that did this coughed discreetly when a problem came up. This was great until the winter cold season came on...) -- Ian. _______________________________________________ List: [email protected] Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
