Rick,
Oh, now I get it. I really feel silly, thinking you were a Red Hat employee.
Thanks for the explanation about the user community. I'll make sure to sign up
with fedora-list. I am happy to finally be part of the Linux family and
certainly glad to be on the redhat-install-list!
Chris

Certainly!

lacking in certain parts of the software industry.

Ah, but remember that those of us who contribute to the fedora-list and
redhat-install-list are _not_ Red Hat employees. We're users, same as
you--although we probably have a bit more experience than you may have.
Just keep in mind that what we say and what you read on the lists is not
official Red Hat support policy. While Red Hat provides the mailing
list servers and software that make the lists go, the content is
virtually all user-created--although the occasional Red Hatter does
chime in. There's lots of us however, and we'll help you out as best we
can...we've all been right where you are now. "Pay it forward" is the
motto, and the only stupid questions are the ones you don't ask!
Welcome to the Linux family, Christopher! Don't be shy!
