  Re: Hotmail account with new stuff
 
(...) They may have a few bugs to work out... I was in the middle of typing out a message to someone last night and Hotmail (without warning) suddenly decided to send my mail before I was done! Gremlins at work. Thomas (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) nod - I ran into that trying to upgrade 6.0 to 6.1 in place, and failing misrably... ended up going a full install. (yay (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Another request to LDlite programmers...
 
(...) barring the groupwise servers, our main file servers (9 of them that users "touch") have been upgraded in place, and for some reason... they didn't like it. when DS is requested to be opened, it takes like 3.5 mins (weird) we haven't had time (...)

  Re: Another request to LDlite programmers...
 
(...) I think that they have in fact removed a few things from the 6.1 installl disk (it's a pretty tight squeeze), but it shouldn't have been anything remotely mainstream. In my (humble, of course) opinion, the 6.1/6.2 installer is terribly broken. (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) I'm willing to bet that she's admin over a NetWare 5 site. NetWare 4 was far more stable. I sometimes wonder why we even let 5.0 out the door (not that I had any control over that!) Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
