What I am stating is that is *might* work, IF everything between the
two RaQs are the same.
However, neither you, with your firm knowledge of Unix, Linux, and
Cobalts in general - nor I, with my knowledge which I don't care to
wag around like a prideful flag, know for SURE whether Glenn's two
servers are exactly the same. We cannot know this, as he did not state
what he had installed on the RaQ3 and what he had installed on the
RaQ4.

I am stating point blank that what WILL work, bar none, regardless of
any "if" situations, is my solution.

What MIGHT work given certain circumstances is NOT the same as what
WILL work - I and everyone else reading this ridiculous exchange knows
that.

*shaking head and sighing*

I'm finished with this thread. You've got something to prove, some
flag to wave, whatever - and I don't get involved in personal quests
of self-worth. Putting words into my mouth also won't get you
anywhere. I mean what I say, and say what I mean.
My method will work. Hisham's method - and yours, apparently, could
cause serious problems.

That's pretty point blank - if you don't understand, I can't help you.
Like I said, vast knowledge is no replacement for common sense.
