I don't know if it counts, but we've been experimenting with the Windows build and have been pretty happy with it so far. Unfortunately, the last time I looked at installing the FreeBSD version, it required something like 4G and my test machine isn't that spaceous. Before we can switch, we need something that runs on both our FreeBSD and Windows workstations, so we haven't really used it too extensively yet. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
