Yes. But as long as people don't get really impertinent it's acceptable, at
least to me. I know how frustrating it is when other people have a piece of
software running but it will not run on my local environment for some strange
reasons I cannot figure out myself. Then I'm happy when someone can help me.
That's why I personally had no big problem this time (at least after ignoring
the $$ part of the message, of course).

Extraordinary software packages require extraordinary approaches, of course.
But yes, I at least really hope people understand this privilege...
BTW: For another mod_ssl user on this list I'm already doing remote consulting
these hours. So it's nothing really unusual... ;-)
