It is my experience that people are just asking questions with out showing
the proper respect for the experts on this list. If you are stumped and can
not figure out a solution to a problem then use this list wisely and ask
your questions. The experts on this list are using their own personal
valuable time to share their knowledge in helping the security community.
The first step in reducing redundant questions on this mailing list is to
