The problem is that it is running on a old Windows server; which is being decommissioned. And the software apparently will not run a current Windows server. If some manager told me to circumvent a software license in any way, I'd say "No." . If it cost me my job, well I'm 66 and would just retire. If they were foolish enough to do it via an email, then I would sent that up the management line to the CEO. I would also likely forward it to my personal email. If I lost my job, the vendor might get a copy of it. Yes, I can be quite "nasty". > RYO software is not optin everywhere. > True. > -- > Radoslaw Skorupka > Lodz, Poland > -- I just burned 2000 calories!
