Unfortunatly the xml DITA doesn't work as expected and so I decided to write it in Libre(Open)-Office to get the exam an certification done. ... for those who are able to read German, the documentation is now available here: http://user.skolelinux.org/~jever/DebianEdu/doc/GOsa/DebianEduNetzwerkemitGOsaverwalten.pdf Maybe I find time to get it translated and ported to the wiki. Every help is welcome. Feel free to contact me, I'm on the list. Greetings Jürgen Leibner aka jever -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
