for us it's a catch22. since we can't get data back out of the database, we haven't figured out what's useful and what's not. I know there's some stuff (like short term packet loss) that we don't care about at all, so I guess I should figure out how to turn those things off and go from there. thanks, -- -debbie Debbie Fligor, n9dn Lead Network Engineer, CITES, Univ. of Il email: [email protected] <http://www.uiuc.edu/ph/www/fligor> "Every keystroke can be monitored.
