I have beaten them into submission. 2. It's not the employee's laptop, it's the company's laptop, so the employees are told what they can do and cannot do. They don't really want to loose their job because they have crashed the network or deleted the corporate word documents... 3. I regularly oversee all the laptops, just like the desktops. 4. If there are problem people, it's not my problem, it's a management problem. Management does not want to loose all the data or the network. -- Thanks http://www.sqlhacks.com The SQL knowledge base _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS at centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
