perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Andrew Lake <>]

Hi,

Thank you for the note. The steps you took were correct. Another user 
reported this earlier as well and we have an issue created for it here: 
http://code.google.com/p/perfsonar-ps/issues/detail?id=820. We will correct 
this in a future release.

Thanks,
Andy
