Date: Thu, 15 Feb 2001 10:49:37 -0500 From: hawk Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG The cost matters less than the ability to to assure a unix-phobic campus administrator about security :) ALl it really needs to do is let a windows machine on the local network run FreeBSD on my box. Before I ask them to buy one, though, I need to see what others have found--I've had bad experiences running Xservers on non-unix--MI/X on a mac redrew so much that many programs were unusable, and the otehr main one (my mind is blanking at the moment) worked fine on my former boss's NT box to access alpha's, but was a nightmare with debian (worked ok with RH, I think). hawk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
