It's like you're asking somebody to describe algebra without using numbers. If you're running a webserver and you get this problem and can't understand the issues that are described, then you need more education in order to overcome your issue. If I wanted to become a mechanic, I'd need to know more than how to change a tire and pump gas. Sure, you can operate a car, but fixing it takes more knowledge. And these things are cryptic to you only because you don't know the information.

I have an idea of what they are and an interest in understanding more, but the choice to use introverted and effectively cryptographic language makes it hard to learn. I'm not busting your chops personally. It's just a personal annoyance with companies like MS and MM that instead of actually trying to help people understand, they expect people to already have a wealth of knowledge. I'm not a server admin but I'd like to do things like run a web server for myself which might include maintaining IIS, CF, mySQL, etc. But because critical information is either assumed or presented in a cryptic fashion, it's almost impossible to do so without problems. At the very least I'm likely to create huge security holes just because the companies make gross assumptions about their userbase. -Kevin On Fri, 4 Mar 2005 10:43:42 -0500, Matthew Small <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > A non-techie wouldn't even know what "simultaneous connections" are.
