- EVERYONE WHO RECEIVES THIS MESSAGE: READ IT THOROUGHLY.
-
- This message is a summary of the next-managers charter and rules.
- Failure to adhere to these guidelines may result in severe
- chastisement by the list maintainer and other list participants
- or your being removed from the next-managers mailing list.
-
-
- 1: This list is NOT moderated! Every message that is sent to the list
- next-managers@stolaf.edu
- will be passed on to every member of the list
-
- 2: Requests to have addresses added or removed from the list should NOT
- be sent to the entire list. Instead, they should be mailed to:
- next-managers-request@stolaf.edu
-
- 3: This list is intended to be a quick-turnaround trouble shooting aid
- for those who administer and manage NeXT systems. Its primary purpose
- is to provide the NeXT manager with a quick source of information for
- system management problems that are of a time-critical nature.
- Its secondary purpose is to disseminate time-critical or security-
- related information.
-
- 4: Answers to questions are to be mailed back to the questioner and are
- NOT to be sent to the entire list. The person who originally asked
- the question has the responsibility of summarizing the answers and
- sending the entire summary back to the list. If everyone follows
- this, one problem will only generate two or possibly three messages
- on the list. The summary message should contain the keyword "SUMMARY"
- in the subject line.
-
- 5: Corrections to compiled answers should be addressed only to the
- person who first asked the question; this person (the writer of
- the original question) is then responsible for distributing
- the corrected information to the list.
-
- 6: Discussions on ANY topic are very strongly discouraged.
-
- 7: If it is not specifically related to NeXT system management, then it
- does NOT belong on this list. This includes advertising. Advertising
- is not appropriate for this list.
-
- 8: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE...Think before you send a message! Ask yourself
- is this really appropriate?
- have you checked in the reference manuals?
- have you checked NextAnswers?
- have you checked the Digital Librarian?
- have you checked in the online man pages?
- have you checked the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) list?
- have you checked the next-managers archive?
- have you checked Nemeth-Snyder-Seebass "Unix System Administration
- Handbook"?
- before mailing to the next-managers list. There are enough
- other newsgroups, mailing lists and other resources around
- to cover the marginal topics.
-
- 9: Do NOT send message from "root" or from "me"; send them from
- your own personal account.
-
- 10: Do not send messages with NeXT attachments; please use straight-text
- only.
-
- 11: next-managers is currently archived on "ftp.stolaf.edu" in
- ~ftp/pub/next-managers.
