My take on your post is that installing software blindly on a multi-user system is at best irresponsible. On a workstation on your desk, the effects of your actions are limited to you alone. This is not the case on a server. It supports your business model, which is unique to you, so the products you use to perform this function need to be well understood and uniquely configured to support your model. I've just had a rant^H^H^H^H email from someone who wants to deploy our product on 45 remote sites but wants us to confirm that it'll work, as he can't find the time to test ( or even install ) it first! Of course we think it'll work, but I ask myself at that point whether he's in the right job! I treat all third party products with the same respect, no matter their complexity. The nike approach cannot be taken in this environment. Steve. _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
