It does pay to have a console available, in case it does not come up again of course :-) On Mon, 25 Aug 2003 14:40:43 +1200 Matthew Gregan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Mon, Aug 25, 2003 at 02:24:01PM +1200, Nick Rout wrote: > > > However, I can't restart the machine to see if it works because it's > > > a critical server! > > > service network restart > > I'm sure I saw the exact same piece of advice in Lehmann's "Getting > Fired In One Easy Step". > > Cheers, > -mjg > -- > Matthew Gregan |/ > /| [EMAIL PROTECTED] >
