it is every time.. ill try.. i have a huge workload at the moment
with 'immediate' requests from the boss.. if i can get those cleaned up i
will have time otherwise it will have to be another day. but yes i would like
to get this working properly... its not affecting anything other than my
sanity at seeing an error :) and taking probably a bit longer due to timeout
than normal. to be honest, once i get the template into production guests,
they may only get shut down once a year if that so its not a huge issue other
than me wanting it perfect. if i can get thru this workload tonight, ill be
there otherwise, ill let you know or just show up if you are usually there
after that time on a day when i can.
