Steve, excuse me, but what game are you playing exactly? I have been following your posts and the answers to them for a while now, and although people are generally very willing to help you, you are continuing to upset them. Why?
John Turner already suggested that you are making some queer kind of "joke", and I'm starting to think he's right. Maybe you should start to post something useful or stop posting at all. And I would strongly suggest to read http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html as is suggested in the jakarta project's mailing list guidelines (which you should perhaps read first: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html). Otherwise (I think) the following things will happen in short order: 1. You will get more flames. 2. A lot of people on this list will filter your posts. 3. You will be banned from the list altogether. But who am I to worry about that? Andreas Mohrig -----Original Message----- From: Steve R.

Hello Micael, I appreciate the "useful" [-sic]advice which you offered to me re. setting the system variables for the Tomcat installation, however I really don't appreciate at all you inferring that I am DELIBERATELY trying to make it harder for both you and everyone else to help me just because I INADVERTENTLY left out the info. on what my platform is! --- On Wed 08/28, micael wrote: From: micael [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED]] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2002 12:39:02 -0700 Subject: Re: STILL need help w.
