But I'll restate what I said.. I don't have a Linux box anymore and I prefer FreeBSD. Basically I didn't like Linux and my friends that are just now using Linux are having the same probs I did and I can see them getting frustrated. I like FreeBSD. If so many big companies use it for their Enterprise systems... I think it's safe to say the developers are doing something good. :) -- ------------------------------------------------------- | Jason P.
