Hey!!!! This thread originally started out with "Is there any advantages/disadvantages between FreeBSD or Linux?" Two people said "try both", then the thread rapidly deteriorated to the above. The same with another thread, Vernon and Metz go crazy on nfs/networking code issues. As a user of FreeBSD I'd like to be able to tell someone what he can expect from Linux, but I don't use it and don't plan on installing it. But I would like to see some rational comparisons. If this is in the FAQ, .......oops. Haven't read it lately. Thanks. -- Mark Veteikis mark@iphase.com 1-214-919-9257 Interphase Corp. 13800 Senlac Dallas Tx. 75234
