I agree. In a business environment if a manager can not fully rely on his staff to be self supporting, he's going to want that service contract. I'm much nicer to goto your manager and say "i have a ticket open with RedHat|Microsoft|IBM|Novell and they are working on it", rather than "i been searching google all morning and can't find anything..." ray -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ray DeJean http://www.r-a-y.org Systems Engineer Southeastern Louisiana University IBM Certified Specialist AIX Administration, AIX Support =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
