my 2 cents...

I'm new to this list - it was just recommended to me by someone on the ASIP list. I've found it enormously helpful so far.

While I'm not always interested in every discussion about how to use the CACLS command or how to configure an NT server running on an alpha box, I don't find them annoying at all. Many of them I just file away for future reference. If I already know it, in the trash it goes.

Every day's a school day!
