Double-check your mail archive (or just re-read the above, it's all right there). The part that DES is rightfully complaining about is this (which you wrote in reply to Julian, and which DES properly quoted): "This is why we provide errata / security fixes. The systems are a static non moving target ???" If you're going to insult someone, at least spend 30 seconds to make sure you are in the right about it. :) ---- Freddie Cash fcash@ocis.net
