Anyone reporting problems, ask yourself these important questions, so that you know what to tell the developers in the bug report:
+
= Environment:
 
+
* What version am I using and are there any contribs installed or other customisations?
+
SME Server 7.1, Updated to 7.3 with yum
* If so attach the output of 'cd /sbin/e-smith/audittools' templates & newrpms
+
* What did I do?, What did I expect to happen?, What happened?, What do the logs say?
+
= Modifications:  
 +
 +
If the following produce any output, attach the results (don't post inline)
 +
/sbin/e-smith/audittools/templates
 +
/sbin/e-smith/audittools/newrpms
 +
/sbin/e-smith/audittools/events
 +
 +
  or say, no custom-templates or contribs.
 +
 +
= Original problem:
 +
 +
Answer the following if possible
 +
-What did I do?
