That's the fun part about all of this. You have to throw some humor in to breakup the dryness. I try to name customer's machines with some imagination rather than just FS1. I've used Disney, Bugs Bunny, all kinds of names. Some people just take it too seriously. Of course, I've been in it long enough to know not to take any of it that serious or it's time to get out.
Jake I know you hear it from time to time but I'll throw mine in too. Thanks!! It really is great to have folks like you dedicated to lending a hand without putting a hand out all the time. That's what it's all about. Like I said, I'm a Linux noob but am fairly high in the Windows food chain. I might not be much help for the Linux crowd but I can help those needing it for Windows, general mail, DNS, VMware (all flavors) and am playing with iSCSI SAN. I think Mike ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) can attest to the DNS part. I spent a few hours working with him a few weeks ago explaining DNS and mail.

I may not understand Linux all that well but I do understand the safeties you are building into the newmodel and I would gladly wait 2x that long so I don't have a corrupt build. I just found your humor well placed. > > I would like to help but I'm not sure I would be able to give you any good feedback. > > I don't take offense, don't worry. There's a wide range of cultures on here (and in the other OSS projects I work on) that are, well, just blunt compared to what I'm used to. If you don't like my stuff, stop downloading it. Easy enough, right? And I know what you mean about being slow - my devel machines have all been reallocated to new tasks for one reason or another, so I'm stuck building everything on a P3-500Mhz and a P3-700Mhz that I have to share 256M of RAM between. Even my desktop is out in the living room right now acting as a MythTV box until I fix my other one so I can't even run VMWare. Most of the humor in tahat script was thanks to Eric 'Shubes'. He also did the work putting together the newmodel script. He got really busy with work so I took control back of the QTP project and try and keep up with the bugs as they come in. You'll see my signature sarcasm scattered throughout things though. Got to keep it interesting for everyone involved. Someday I'll post my list of HELO and SMTP greetings I've collected in log files (highlights: "Gimme all your lovin" "It was good for me, was it good for you" "Thanks for the fish" and so on) --------------------------------------------------------------------- QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted <http://www.vr.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted <http://www.vr.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
