Kevin,

Thanks a lot!  I am trying to grasp the stateless part now ( you are ahead
of me, as I was reading your threads  :-) ) ,  I am a bit lost.  Hopefully,
you (and other great folks in this forum ) can give me a hand.

here is my scenario:

My MN is on centOS 7.4, and my current stateful is on centOS 6.9 (working
pretty good so far). I would like to set up a stateless with centOS 6.9.  I
am not sure which approach to take.  Have you dealt with this already?

And yes, I just tried your command, it accepted it, yay! at least
that's comforting for now ;-)

thanks
