Hi Peter, Yes, you are absolutely right. It's a serious mistake from my side. Somehow I have just been pressing reply button without double-checking whether the addresses included the vlan community address. I have realised that i have actually done this to few other community members, not only you, which is a big mistake of course. Thanks for bringing it into my attention as now i see the mistake i have been doing. I will be careful in future. Many thanks, Cyprian. -------------- Peter Stuge <stuge@xxxxxxx> wrote: Hi, On Fri, Mar 18, 2005 at 02:15:18PM +0000, Cyprian Clement wrote: > Hi Peter, > > Thanks so much for your email with these useful answers to my > query.

Yes, but unless you are interested in negotiating a private support contract, your message should be sent to the list. I will not answer this message in private. I am not your Linux support desk. I send messages to the VLAN mailing list for the benefit of all readers, the archives and internet search engine spiders. Sending these kind of messages directly to posters such as myself will quickly make you impopular in the open source community. Please see if your email software has some sort of mailing list awareness, many modern email applications do, and if it does, see if there's also a list-reply function or shortcut. I use that all the time. //Peter Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
