After a conversation with the head of a local ISP, it was conveyed to me that in their experience, Windows NT was not robust enough for their (net) news operations. In attempting to allow it to, they built a machine of gargantuan proportions (It's storage was below that of the WCArchive.) and still couldn't keep up with the news feed. They now have a Solaris machine handling it. He also told me that three of the admins were members of the Linux users group here in town. And yet they couldn't get their beloved OS on the news server? If only I knew how to run INN and were two years older, I'd probably have a job. -- Kris Kirby UAH Mail <kirbyk@email.uah.edu> UAH CS <kkirby@cs.uah.edu> Home <kris@airnet.net> WWW <nomurphy@hotmail.com> ------------------------------------------- TGIFreeBSD...
