dude, take a chill pill for a second.

seriously chill out.. 

I ask , seriously cause whilst I have not had any issues on the linux
side of things. Ive heard of problems from users with Win2k boxen. its a
question to the list regarding a aspect of the code. not a pop at
windows. 

sigh...


and I can point to BIND/DJBDNS {sic} as a example of the differnce
between tight and non tight code. 

Snake Oil salesman I may be but hey 30k of sales in a week will pay my
staffs salary .

"Are you certain?" the other replies.
"Yes! I'm positive!"
