I guess some of us people in the trenches need to get out a bit more into
the bleeding edge documentations eh?

Of course I knew the fuzzy general basics of all this yet I suppose I needed
a solid reminder... 

And I thank you for that. Good lookin' out.

CentOS is so rock solid that our installs have been running since CentOS
first came on the scene, was tested, and immediately provisioned and
implemented.

Good thing we are essentially done scrambling (read working like intelligent
chicken with head cut off) for the 2007 year and now it is just time for
cleanup & getting organized to bed this year and birth a new one.

Cheers everyone, and remember, Jesus is the reason for everything.
