[-- Attachment #1 --] A friend and I are debating as to whether FreeBSD is really BSD UNIX ported for the x86 and Alpha platforms, or if it is UNIX-like similar to Linux. Can someone please shed some light on this subject? Jim E. :-) ___________________________________________ "Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocre minds.
