Hi Guys,

I will keep this log open in the Network Services Help Desk Log#12004,  I
will leave it open for 24 hours, then close it unless I hear from one of
you or Steve.

Can we pay attention to this one for a day or so. Steve can you let me know
if you have problems (through net-help) I read it every day.

                                        Thanks all,

                                        Jerry
