I think it is good though. It kind of motivates people to do research on their own before asking for the answer. If you find the answers on your own, you will have a better understanding of the resolution and you will retain the knowledge better.
It is like an unwritten rule though with these lists. You have to feel them out. Some are for beginners and others are for experts sharing knowledge. Obviously asking a newbie question to an expert panel is going to get you some heat. -----Original Message----- From: Caraker Shane A SrA 1 CS/SCMV [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, February 07, 2003 8:05 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: RE: Other Lists (was: VPN) You made the mistake of asking how to change the system time, eh? yup...did that once...scary...very scary -----Original Message----- From: Roger Seielstad [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, February 07, 2003 7:01 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: RE: VPN That's not a rough list.
