Because we can administer FreeBSD systems the HP-UX way and those admins who only know HP-UX will feel comfortable with FreeBSD. Seriously, a poke the screen with a mouse administration tool will give FreeBSD a level of parity with Red Hat in the eyes of new windows users. While I will continue to directly edit rc/conf files, many people are not comfortable with such an approach (e.g. the fuss raised over *.ini files in windows). Is this product going to be expensive? or will it be donated to the freebsd project? -- When I was a kid I had to rub sticks together to multiply and divide numbers. A calculator was a job description. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
