Shalom,

I can't seem to find the threads that follow this excellent sysadmin script thread:
http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=178514

I THINK, I went through Bill's profile very carefully. Most likely it's me, but can anyone find the other two threads and let me know where they are. They are a real time saver.

Hi,

I have received attached mail. I am sorry but I do not understand. I did not want to ruin the perfect point distribution of Drew Dimmick and so I posted a link to the other forum. I find it rather smallminded to delete that.

Michael

Steve,

Here is the third of Bill's "scripts" postings. In his opening post, Bill points out the other two:

Michael,

I have to agree with you. I see no reason for that post to have been removed!

Michael,

I've only had one thread deleted and was warned in advance when that happened by ITRC management. In that case I did not receive the notice, which I find vaguely offensive, probably because special tools were used to make the thread go away.

I agree with you, but I got my post in.

What I do instead is post a think to the congrats thread in this thread. Thats good for about 10 visitors contrating the guy.

Drew is amazing, earning Olympia in the ITRC wilderness.

Pete,

Thanks.

The signs point to this being an HP-UX post.

Its sendmail, so I'm probably picking nits.

The location and name of the log file, the fact that syslog is showing audit messages and such make it a 99% certainty in my mind that this is HP-UX.

So maybe move it so more people see the post.

Not that there have been a lot of threads to respond to this morning, but it seems that every time I do try to respond, it takes two tries. The first try I get "system unavailable", hit the back button and then the second try succeeds. Just slightly annoying.

P.S. Yep, this time, too.

[Pete Randall]

Well - that's the first time this morning (6:00AM EST thru 9:30AM EST) that the post succeeded while giving me the "system unavailable" message!

Pete:

At least you were able to get in. ;-)

I finally gave up until now.

Make a great 2006!

Hi Cheryl, Hi Dan,

two of the three threads seem to be duplicates.

Hi Moderators,

The following thread is a Linux thread Ok but a Database one, not System Administration:

[Jasper Verweij]

Hi,

I want to change my display name back to "Jasper Verweij", but after submitting I get error that my new name is already in use.

When looking in the forum member list I see no other ITRC account with my display name.

Maybe I created a duplicate account long time ago, but that one is not in use (only br135148)

Could you please contact me about this issue if a duplicate name exists or change my name back to "Jasper Verweij" (in stead of my current temp name "<< Jasper Verweij >>".

Thx,

Jasper

Cheryl, Dan,

First: Happy new year.

http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=988139

and

http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=988143

are duplicates. Only the title differs somewhat.

No answers yet, but if they come before you remove one, probably best to merge them.

PS. In Europe at least December has ended. Time to start a January thread? :-)

Proost.

Have one on me.

Cheryl,

I have workaround my problem. I wanted to update my forum to "Jasper Verweij" (two spaces in between) and after submitting the logic removed my second space, but saved my new name!

Hi Cheryl,

I've got a problem similar to Jasper's. I wanna change my email because i've moved to another company and cannot access my registered email, but it says the name is already in use. Could you help me to solve that?

Regards.
