Read the EULA and you'll come to > know the extent to which you can blame RedHat or any other software > vendor. It's effectively _zero_. > Tahir, I guess you read my post in haste. Please read it a little more carefully, and you'll realize that I've already mentioned that with any Linux distro, you can't blame the software (vendor)- refer to <MARK> above. That is to say, you can't take any legal action for compensation etc. What I wanted to say is that with paid support, you can often defend yourself _inwithin_ the company, atleast to some extent. I don't think thats too hard to figure out. Yours, KZ -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
