On the other foot, it's probably not such an unreasonable expectation for someone coming from a different background to expect that once it *looks* done it actually *is* done. It's as if you were to take me scuba diving, or drag racing... I have zero expertise and I'd probably be doing all the silly ignorant things too. Or... maybe the tech was just in a hurry and didn't think all the way through the consequences. I've been there. ;) Regards, Ben _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
