IF they are there..    indeed!

 

I agree that a hands off management style is best - "here's a dead box,
fix it".

 

In a solaris sysadmin class I took years ago, while we were all at
lunch, the instructor "broke" each of our Sun workstations, rendering
them unbootable.   To top it off, each system was broken in a different
way.

 

(In my case, the cause was a boot device string that she had added a
trailing space after--- rendering the boot record/device incorrect.
Pretty funny..    )

 

(Adding to the story....    Most of us figured out the problems in a
manner of minutes or less..    but two guys still had no clue after a
half hour..  oops)
