Ah, sorry, the server is not a Debian box, it's Fedora (FC12). I think we shouldn't assume all the world runs Debian.

No, it isn't if you run FC12 servers. Thanks, Hans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
