Woah! Hold on a minute there! Just because a person is a "Network Admin" does
not mean they are Unix **system** admins. Further, there are other operating
systems in the world other than *nix. Even if all they used was NT/2000, the
person who administered that network would still be a "Network
Administrator", having never seen a *nix system.
Yes, one **might** say that Paul doesn't ask the right questions. However,
being a ***newbie*** to *nix he apparently does not have the familiarity with
the terminology that others do. That gives none of us the right to insult
him.
You definately owe him an apology.
Regards,
jimmo
