I'd assumed that "accounts" here meant different accounts on different computers. And changing the settings would be as simple as the way I set random sigs, except instead of a random number determining the sig, it would be set based on the host name. > Sattinger's Second Law: Even though you've plugged it in, it still > won't work until you switch it on. That's still not complete, though. I once saw a post in alt.sysadmin.recovery (the thread was something like, "things that make you say ummmmmm") where someone told a story about a woman who called tech support, asking why her modem wasn't working. The guy telling the story said he asked her to see if there were any lights lit up on the modem. She said she'd go check. After about 15 minutes, she came back to the phone and said no. So he asked her to check and see if the modem was turned on, and just before he was able to ask why it took her so long, she'd already gone to check. Anyways, she finally gets back, and says yes, it's plugged in. So he then asks why it's taking her so long to get to the modem and back. She responds, saying that the power is out in their building, and their phone system isn't working, so she's having to use a pay-phone across the street. I have that archived somehwere here, if anyone wants me to post a copy, put it online, etc. Just remember, put your coffee down before you read it or C|N>K will be the result (that's another one from ASR---coffee, piped through the nose, onto the keyboard).
