Sorry about the wrong info in my first e-mail. I've done this twice now. I think I'll keep my mouth shut for awhile. FreeBSD is a very fast, stable, powerful system. You will go through a long learning curve, but I think it is worth it. Special when you learn all of the tools and how to use them together to do virtually whatever you want to do. One of the coolest thing about *nix is the (`) back-tick expression in the shell. It is very powerful. It allows you to use the output of one commands on the command LINE of another command. Ok, so I can't keep my mouth shut for too long. I switched over a NT based e-commerce server to FBSD. My client can't believe the speed of the system (exact same hardware) and how quickly I can whip together custom app using either shell scripts, perl, etc. Kory To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
