If you need Oracle, don't use FreeBSD, it's not officially supported and for the money it costs, you really don't want to run it on unsupported platforms (SuSE Linux being one of several free supported ones). Besides, the Linuxolator very well works but still it's a hack and in my case certainly not something I'd want to base the future of my business on. If you want to use FreeBSD, stick to Postgresql or Firebird (GPL'ed Interbase) or maybe SAPdb (which has got a largely Oracle compatible mode). Lets you also safe lots and lots of money (that is if your apps run without Oracle, of course [1]). As to Samba, that one hardly needs support. You just need to watch out to apply their fixes on time. I think there are some FreeBSD support companies but none as big as the Linux crowd but their staff might very well be more competent than the average Linux supporter. Tuxedo I've never even heard about. As for native Oracle on FreeBSD, I wouldn't hold my breath as few people would even want it. Best regards, Gabriel [1] Too bad Compiere still doesn't. Gna. Oracle is a bitch to install on whatever OS and I really don't feel like going thru that trouble just to give Compiere a test ride. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.0.2i iQEVAwUBPqWJocZa2WpymlDxAQHK0gf/SBNSmReGFvHePFKl5/iMpxwhjz6BcZ2p Gf5HTZKdHCAMz8dfYGrkYFqQrJoGy/Nv/kY9mcbcKnuOn2qRrqWBNsXdSD7sEXEI fI1qgIFH6jDdzSumPbq9kjfPIIgl6C/5RxrMhAus8pBvU0XqRwEJ5QXJLoB4gtr4 nCNH/ucwzuZu6C93WUgN+iPvQUNFIdFdMR5B4FpVT8WhpgyC4R3UIWRif8UiM+r8 lTjXdiMa52MW+eO5GvSdjVWOT4GwRpe5Dqm+Tw4hg72Y1tI77+tctZumLK32en5d /fMRvMv9Gr7G5nwKsDoYof/bGzsfCTH2Cpx8yZOoieQbKeQi4eI1Uw== =TMWy -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
