I still don't know what you (Didier that is) are whining about... Just follow the rules: 1/ Buy reliable hardware 2/ Install a stable OS (FreeBSD) 3/ Use well tested applications, either native coded for FreeBSD or using its GNU/Linux binary compatibility Oh, and... 9/ Make regular backups and test them once-in-a-while. Just because hardware tends to break down when you least expect it... :( > - Forrest W.
