Re: [hlds] [SPAM] RE: VMware Advise

2009-02-14 Thread Chad Austin
I like this [SPAM] tag, but I don't think people will tag their  'OMG 
VALVE IS EVILL!!11!!1!1' threads with it, maybe a [CHAT] tag or 
something else would be better for things not directly related to 
running dedicated servers.

 PS: Karl, I actually found your instructions on setting up ESXi with
 FreeNAS and iSCSI last week when I tackled that very subject here at
 work - it was a very interesting read. I really think you can expand
 on it that though, if you ever get time :P
