All done without the need to touch any config files or go to CLI. -- I thought YOU silenced the guard! - http://kingsly.net/tmp/fortune.php/1248709039 _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
