Nor would I ever expect to. The point is LOTS of places have extensive procedures in place that must be followed before any software on production systems can be changed, including applying vendor supplied and recommended patches. While I have free reign to do anything I want with my systems, such is not the case for many of my client's systems. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
