If only people would READ and do some research THEMSELVES instead of expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter, with no work involved.... There are some very good, deep technical questions here. Unfortunately over half the questions can be answered by the basic website articles, faqs and forums. There are some very smart people here, dont waste their time ;) Sit back, read and LEARN! You have obviously been to the website because you have found this list. GO READ IT! -- Even better, BUY THE DAMN BOOK ;) Seriously people, do some research on your own. Thats the ONLY way you will LEARN things. If you still cant figure things out, THEN make a posting. Use the resources before you. Microsoft knowledge base, TechNet, isaserver.org website and forums. That's what they are there for! Not all things are taught in class, or read in a book -- Especially common sense! And most of all... "R.T.F.M." !!! :) </rant> -Brian Carrick MCSE(NT,2K), CCNA,CNA, A+, N+
