He is an AIX Systems Engineer currently responsible for an enterprise level system with 6-8 boxes, 8Gigs Ram and processing data in the multiple tetrabytes. Following is his reply. ML Duke Begin: Actually, I didn't find much humor, but I did feel sympathy. I am now compelled to work with Red Hat Linux, and I can assure you, it's a (bleep) nightmare. Nothing is standard, everything has strange idiosyncracies and I have to work three times as hard to accomplish a normal task with Red Hat than I do with Solaris, AIX or and BSD. Every day, with Linux, there is a new security vulnerability. that needs fixing. I'm beginning to dislike Linux rather deeply;) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
