Re: looking for a set of applications

Usually list exchanges go as follows:

Person asks a question, list user answers.
Person asks another question, list user answers.

I go back to work this week and have no intention of providing any more 
information on these programs than I have in my previous post.
I decided to make this clear before you wasted your time asking me any more 
questions.

I have in fact used calamaris and sarg, and once squid is configured these 
programs for the most part work.
This said however, I usually install this infrastructure for paying clients.

As my wife is ill; I prioritize my time between working, and looking after 
her. This does not leave me with a lot of time to enter into in depth 
discussions on many topics on the speakup list.

If you would prefer I will obstaine from providing any information at all on 
your inquiries; rather than beeing honest on the level of tech support I am 
willing to provide.

If you feel this is a personal afront, I am sincerely sorry.
there is no emotion involved in this decision and I have not allowed my 
personal opinions to affect this decision; it is purely a case of time 
management.

Any other list participant is more than welcome to answer your further 
questions in as much detail as they see fit, however I will not be 
perpetuating the thread beyond this point.

This is one of the advantages of open source and community resources, people 
can provide as much or as little support as they see fit.
I choose to stay at the little end of the scale during 2009 whilst I am 
working.

Regards, Kerry.
