An elementary school we serve had a written contract with the local cable company to provide them a static IP and to allow them to run their own mail and web server. This worked well for about a year. Then the school was disconnected for violating the terms of service against servers. When shown the contract, the cable company informed them that their terms of service, which they could change at will, overrode any other arrangements. The attorney for the town thought that a novel interpretation of contract law, but the school felt it wasn't worth pursuing through legal channels. We provided them a workaround, which has survived three changes of ownership of the cable company. -- Dan Jenkins ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), Rastech Inc., Bedford, NH, USA - 1-603-206-9951 _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
