Hi Thanks. That's encouraging. I'm glad you said, 'I also learned from following this thread.' How do you say 'mal de mucho, consuelo de tontos' in English? Beacause that's how I feel about taking on a lan and administering it. You make me feel safe in my void of anyone else to relate to if I have a problem. Using the non enterprize version of SuSE to run a network I feel is very much in it's infancy. The only method of support is through this list. SuSE will not help you. It is a very dangerous game to play being a non supported sys admin. I think we all operate in isolation with none of us being able to communicate our real fears and ideas. I believe that it prevents open source software from progressing to a greater extent. Love from Lynn. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
