Have you tried creating a thread? Oh, I think if you’re a new member, there are things you cannot do for a certain amount of time. So you may not be able to create a thread, but you may be able to reply. You may have to reply to this message and some more to be able to post a thread. Those restrictions were put into place to keep down the spamming. – Susan Novell Community Chat Moderator ## [http://forums.novell.com/faq.php?faq=novfor#faq\_rules](http://forums.novell.com/faq.php?faq=novfor#faq_rules) [http://www.ncci.org](http://www.ncci.org) NCCIrregulars Web Site islander’s Profile: [https://forums.novell.com/member.php?userid=12](https://forums.novell.com/member.php?userid=12) View this thread: [https://forums.novell.com/showthread.php?t=494954](https://forums.novell.com/showthread.php?t=494954) ---
