Hi
I'm desperately trying to learn to be a good admin. I'm far from it. In Spain 
companies are prepared to pay you loadsa money if you can stop them getting 
viruses and you can speak English and Spanish. So I tried just about all 
methods everyone suggested. The only ones which worked first time viz me 
copying and pasting from this thread to my cli were the renaming as dot 
(yours I think) and the rsync alternative. I also used mc as my server does 
not have a gui.

What amazes me is that hobbyists (it seems that most people on this site do 
not work as admins to earn a living) such as the folk on this list are so 
willing and eager to help. Indeed were it not for them I'd not be in the 
position I'm in now. You never get that in the workplace. All they do is 
complain that vista is so slow now I have the suse server in place.

Love from Lynn.
