FreeBSD is unix and FreeBSD complies with the Single Unix Specification[1] and other standards like POSIX, so basically yes. If theres any difference between the standards spec and the FreeBSD implementation, it's generally because the FreeBSD implementation is a superset of what's required. Cheers Matthew [1] Informally, because actually getting the OS tested costs money. That's why FreeBSD is unix, but not Unix(TM). --=20 Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK --2fHTh5uZTiUOsy+g Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBc7UziD657aJF7eIRAqO5AKC14cwBMjF/AuEk5YK03Ql7AcGDFgCfQJ0T QND3CCs2QeGdD3ILNDmVqrU= =qIch -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --2fHTh5uZTiUOsy+g--
