Wilfred,
Windows I presume?
I think your analogies suck ...
Well, you seem to attribute every random system problem to the linux os,
I thought I return the favour. ;-)
When you need to explain it, that proves the analogy sucks.
As for the issue reported ... if the link causes issues then it is not that bright sending the error-report via that broken link. Instead, I got an error-report from Fabio via email ... that helped ... it was 100% operator error and repaired once reported...
As for Linux ... it probably is a fine OS as without it the movie 'Titanic' could not have been made. However, errors by nodelist-scribes usually are produced on linux-based systems where the OS outgrew the competences of the operator. Both Nick Andre and myself have stories to tell, not in the least about former Z1-nodelist management or the current NAB where people simply are incompetent at simple routing.
But I hope you are having a nice day right now,
