i'm wondering about running commercial databases, in particular
sybase, on a freebsd platform via iBCS emulation.  has anyone done
this? i looked through the mail archives and saw a bit from terry
lambert over a year ago about this.  i'm interested in doing this in a
production enviroment, and i'd like some feedback from ppl who might
have done this already.  e.g., whether it runs reliably.

thanks much -- steve farrell
