You're welcome. Mark - as a general word of advise, next time you have an issue, rather than ranting because something isn't working as you expect and calling people stupid, perhaps you could try describing the problem you are experiencing in a rational manor and provide supporting information. It seems you had already decided it was someone else's fault and were more interested in blaming others than examining your own issues. Most people in the community are happy to provide free support for the free software we ship, but when you start a thread accusing my colleagues and myself of being stupid, well it does not endear yourself to me nor put me in a state of mind where I particularly want to go out of my way to help you, for free. This isn't the first time; it will be the last. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
