I say that to say this; use what tools you have to do the job the easiest. I also run Solaris-8 on an Intel box too and it runs fine providing you make sure you have a Intel Pro nic card (or 3Com) and not too fancy video card. If you order the lastest Solaris-8 (Intel) Media Kit it will be the 02/02 release and the following link will lead you to the hardware compatibility list. http://docs.sun.com/?q=HCL&p=/doc/816-2419 It's a bit of a learning curve doing the install but it's worth the exercise if the WebCT runs on the Intel version of Solaris-8. -- |<--------------------------------72---------------------------------->| Bill Schoolcraft PO Box 210076 -o) San Francisco CA 94121 /\ "UNIX, A Way Of Life." _\_v http://forwardslashunix.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
