I run Solaris here, but I'm not running HP/UX and never intend to.. Linux probably has a larger single-user base than those two combined. I'm still trying to fathom why Netscape servers (and Microsoft IE, if we're going to jaunt down that road) are not ported to FreeBSD, Linux, etc. After all, the operating system (to build/test ports) is obtainable at a convenient cost of 0$, I'd imagine the BSDI version (which there are also slim ports of as well) would port rather well to FreeBSD.. --- Drew "Droobie" Baxter Network Admin/Professional Computer Nerd(TM) OneEX: The OneNetwork Exchange 207-942-0275 http://www.droo.orland.me.us My Latest Kernel: FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT (ONEEX) #14: Mon Oct 19 22:36:58 EDT 1998 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
