Please don't be a troll. We've gone through that in this thread. Not everyone has the same level of expertise. Just because he's learning does not mean he shouldn't be hear. What did you gain by a cold statement like that -- other than making it clear that you feel superior to him because you know *nix and he doesn't know as much as you? He's frustrated and asking for help and you take that opportunity to throw ice water down his back. How humane and considerate of you. Do you realize what a self serving statement like that tells the rest of us about you? Are you sure that's the message you want to send him, as someone who needs help, and the rest of us seeing it?
