	Unfortunately this is not at all the case.  I don't know where you've
done your searching, but it hasn't been very thorough.  Ronald Minnich
(excuse any bad spelling) has been doing clustering with FreeBSD for _years_
and has clusters of 64 and more (iirc) machines.  I'd appreciate if you did
better research before you post such information to the lists.  It only
serves to disinform those who search in the list archives.

The biggest problem with those searching for "clustering" software usually
is that they haven't defined "clustering" in combination with their needs.
Your assumptions about what what Dmitry actually is looking for make your
answer even less accurate.

P.S. This is a reply that I cut-n-wasted from the ML archives. I'm not on
the list, so if you think I should get your mail, use CC:
