Adams' is the voice of reason and list members should of course neither scare away newbies nor forget that written communication between many people of many languages can be tricky. But... For certain questions, this thread's beginning included, one is IMHO not really helping the person asking the question by giving out a simple and easy answer. The inability to figure out this problem by oneself probably means that designing EEM scripts to on core routers is a bad idea. When asking a question one must remember that they're asking probably thousands (I don't know the number for c-nsp) of people across the world. If one person could spend two minutes with his/her favourite search engine to find a solution then that would be much more effective than a thousand persons each spending even just one second reading the question. Similarly with formatting and spelling; it doesn't have to be perfect, but showing that you care enough to spend a few minutes proof reading and making things look nice will attract more potential answerers. It's easy-ish to ignore these questions, or so I find. But that's arguably more rude than actually saying out loud what Lukas said, which was honestly what I was thinking too. :-) Let's hope this thread doesn't devolve to something NANOG-ish! -- Peter _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
