Well then, by all means contribute! As far as I know this newsgoup hasn't been here more than a week or two, and just because there has been a lot of educational traffic you shouldn't keep yourself silent if you have something interesting to say. I hear tell that commercial sites can have their educational value as well. P.S. I am not a system administrator, and never have been. But I do have an incurable habit of posting to USENET. -Ho Yi <lambast@buengf.bu.edu>

Yes, there are quite a few corporate sites.... I like to see people on from the .mil and .gov sites, though most of them seem fairly reclusive, especially in comparison to the .edu's. Their sysadmins must have some interesting stories to tell, though. [For those who think .gov sites don't have any fun, read Cliff Stoll's book, "The Cuckoo's Egg." :)] I'm in favour of hearing anything the BellCoRe gang has to tell :) -shag -- >-----------------------------------------------------------------------------< >Shag is: < > A.
