Ill second that! Maybe we'll see clustering maybe we wont :) But At least we can offer those doing the work the chance to take their, in this case, cluster work and integrate it with little overhead, when the code meets the specs. I think of projects that have been done to add funtionality and more than anything just selling points and buzzwords, for isntance gene starks DSM for FBSD. It would have had some useage somewhere im sure, but for most of us, not really. But It was work done and completed, just never integrated into the src. That really isnt a good point since even if it had been intergrated i doubt gene would be hacking on it to keep it cruft free and working. So maybe thats a bad example :) But ron will probably keep his cluster code working and compilable, so I think jordans idea is a good one, even if this was a long winded way to say it. Oh and wine and woman usually are the 2 standard exploits for most of us :) ./wine -red -exploit ron ./women -seduce -3on1 ron Source is freely availble! Chris -- "I am closed minded.
