The best way to handle this would be to have messages about csup
failing to be directed only to those who are actually able to fix
the problem. Assuming that the cvsup server is always going to work
is contrary to both history and good system administration practices. :)
Perhaps as an interim measure a local procmail rule to filter out cvsup
failures from going to the list ?
That's a particularly unhelpful response. Not only is it borderline
rude to attempt to shift the responsibility for this to the users,
it's a violation of the robustness principle.
I meant "local procmail rule" as in local to the tinderboxes so that
des and myself and others who admin the boxes only get such
messages. I didnt want to make such changes without des' approval
and was waiting for his input...
