Thanks. It's good advice. I must admit to using out of the box applications and expecting them to just work. Usually they do. I suppose if I bought the windows server I'd get 24/7 support.
If you bought linux server you'd get 24/7 support as well.
Maybe that's what I should be looking at in my situation.
How would downgrading to windoze help? If you want paid support, it's available with SLES or other linux distros. I work in a shop where the managers would love to see an all windoze shop, but the reality is they need unix in the server room because windoze doesn't "just work" in quite a few situations - and support doesn't help. The only solution found thus far is to let unix/linux handle those tasks.
I have however learned a lot from this experience, especially from the (free) advice given here. So I'm going to continue with my Linux setup until I understand enough not to have to trouble the list. I wish to thank everyone for their contributions in helping me solve this problem and I hope that I have not wasted your time on something trivial.
Everyone has to start somewhere, so please don't feel bad about asking for help. Just pass it on someday when the shoe is on the other foot. Joe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
