The fact that I use them is irrelevant. I posted the original email about the BindView advisory as it *clearly* affects FreeBSD, which I happen to run on an AlphaStation - but that, too, is irrelevant. I also won't point out the nearly two decades of UNIX experience that I have, or my kernel development experience. What I will say is that the coward who sent me this should stand up for his convictions and face me from a real email address and allow our peers to decide. To everyone else on the list, I apologize for taking up bandwidth. john... ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Monday, December 04, 2000 4:59 PM Subject: IDIOT > Seriously dude.
