Good morning, Frank... After the "interesting" exchange between you and Brian Antoine yesterday, I decided against all my better judgement, to publicly post a *polite* reply to Brian in spokane.general this morning. Part of this urging is sheer bravado, as I am proud of what I have accomplished over the last eight years and change running a news server. Other than yesterday's little SPAM storm, I haven't seen any major incursions, either from any of the national news feeds (which are a considerable risk, themselves) or locally, from users.
The other part, unfortunately, is that Brian has steadfastly REFUSED to answer any e-mail, regardless of its content, that I have sent him for over eight years, rejecting any mail that comes from my IP or domain. Even some of his business associates and closest friends calls Brian anal-retentive, but I won't go down that path. From all I have seen, he is a damned good network engineer and knows a hell of a lot about technical issues. Unfortunately, none of that is likely to ever change. However, thanks for the heads-up, as I always try to correct any misconceptions about my news server. 8-) Dave -- Dave Laird ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) The Used Kharma Lot Web Page: http://www.kharma.net updated 11/24/2004 Usenet news server : news://news.kharma.net Fortune Random Thought For the Minute "You who hate the Jews so, why did you adopt their religion?" -- Friedrich Nietzsche, addressing anti-semitic Christians _______________________________________________ Libnw mailing list [email protected] List info and subscriber options: http://immosys.com/mailman/listinfo/libnw Archives: http://immosys.com/mailman//pipermail/libnw
