Maybe because you're acting like a dickhead? Let's review the timeline, shall we? 1. You have a question. A somewhat silly one, but a question nonetheless. 2. You post it to the developers list hoping for an answer. 3. The author of the program your question concerns responds with an answer pointing out your oversight. 4. You rudely and haughtily tell him he's wrong as if he wouldn't know what he's talking about. While #2 was a minor mistake (you should've posted to the users list), it's #4 that makes you look like a dumbass. > have i insulted you in any way? i dont think so. You didn't insult him. You just acted as though you knew more than he about his own program. So he decided that you could fend for yourself. Seems perfectly reasonable to me. > we have several hundreds of users, whose accounts sit on a central > nfs server. as is accustomed in these circumstances, we set the nfs > to root squash, from security reasons. Using "NFS" and "security" in the same thought process without the phrase "has no" in between reveals a rather disturbing lack of clue on your part. > bye. See ya. Michael -- Michael Jennings (a.k.a.
