It was some months after I installed Solaris 2.0 on our first Sparc system. Almost everything, I learend about Solaris was the same on the Siemens system. I read an article about the sceduling classes and the administration commands. They were the same on the Siemens box. Sceduling classes really sounds like internals to me. 73, Mario -- Mario Klebsch, DG1AM, M.Klebsch@tu-bs.de +49 531 / 391 - 7457 Institut fuer Robotik und Prozessinformatik der TU Braunschweig Hamburger Strasse 267, 38114 Braunschweig, Germany
