You may want to try a forum specific to whatever distribution you are
using. For example, if you are using Fedora, there is
fedora-l...@redhat.com
(http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list)  for Ubuntu,
there's ubuntu-us...@ubuntu.com
(https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users)

There's also various web based forums, like http://fedoraforum.org or
http://ubuntuforums.org

.Hope that helps!

No, we were stating that the questions you previously asked were about
tools that were not part of GNU Coreutils.  Generally, any GNU application
will have a --help option that tells you where to ask questions.  For
example, using 'cp --help' shows you that cp is part of GNU coreutils, and
that this would be the right place to ask about cp.

 Do if i get any doubt , then to which e-mail address i have to send

Also, if your installation is up-to-date, you will notice that 'cp --help'
also mentions this:

| General help using GNU software: http://www.gnu.org/gethelp/

That web page has lots of tips on how to get advice related to the
specific question you have, and more particularly, where the right places
are to ask.

I would also highly recommend that you read this:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

including the advice about using wise subject lines and choosing the right
list based on web searches.

Please use a more descriptive subject line.  This is the second topic from
you this month using the same title, and the title had no bearing on the
content for either thread:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2009-10/msg00051.html

According to Chandan Kumar on 10/15/2009 11:47 PM:
 Can i have mount command details, i.e . how to work with a pen drive using 
 mount command

Once again, you've reached the wrong list.  mount is not one of the GNU
Coreutils.  You are probably better off asking a local Unix Users group.

1700 is a leap year, and leap years predating 1582 (the adoption of the 
Gregorian Calendar) depend which calendar you're talking about.
