So I'm glad to have reached my object. I don't know what axe you are trying to grind but that's nonsense. Yes, I said when you start doing a clone the phones don't work but I never said "the only problem we have is that an out going clone causes problems". That's clearly not true, there are incoming clones, pushes, outgoing pulls, all sorts of HTTP traffic, etc. The problem is that you heard clone and you assumed that clone was the ONLY source of traffic. That's your problem, not mine, so don't go accusing me of spreading misinformation because you weren't thinking or listening, please. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitmover.com/lm - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
