  • The entirety of your solution here is in the link, and that's generally discouraged here. After all, links die all the time and then this answer would no longer be helpful. It would be better to copy the important parts from that link into your answer Commented Dec 22, 2016 at 12:59

    @EricRenouf this particular one is a link to ServerFault, so I'd have assumed that site would have the same longevity as this one? Commented Dec 22, 2016 at 13:03

    @roaima good point there, though I'd still prefer to have answers actually contain the answer itself. A link to another relevant answer would probably be better as a comment Commented Dec 22, 2016 at 13:05
  • I am voting this answer up. Even though it is a link, it links to ServerFault which is part of the same network of StackExchange. It is really tiring and sad to see people discouraging other people to post answers. Person A posts something, Person B says: "this is not helpful" (or similar), but person B does not add anything to the discussion. Please let's stop that. Commented Dec 22, 2016 at 13:25
