Chris, As the sysadmin for ALL of our UNIX boxes here at GE Drives, I can tell you HP/UX is NOT BSDish. HP/UX is based on SystemVRel3 (not even 3.2!) with HPisms abounding. SunO/S (up to SunO/S 5, Solaris 2.x) is based on BSD 4.2, with SunO/S 5 based on System V Rel 4.0. I have to maintain BOTH environments! ---- Stephen F.
