I don't know about anyone else, but I am getting a little uncomfortable with your posts (to RT-Users and to the Wiki) being little more than an advert for proxmox rather than a real contribution to the community. I'm not saying I don't want you mentioning it, but I personally would appreciate it if you could tone down the advertising. -- Kind Regards, __________________________________________________ Mike Peachey, IT Tel: +44 114 281 2655 Fax: +44 114 281 2951 Jennic Ltd, Furnival Street, Sheffield, S1 4QT, UK Comp Reg No: 3191371 - Registered In England http://www.jennic.com __________________________________________________ _______________________________________________ http://lists.bestpractical.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rt-users Community help: http://wiki.bestpractical.com Commercial support: sa...@bestpractical.com Discover RT's hidden secrets with RT Essentials from O'Reilly Media.
