In my day job I'm a network administrator for a small network using a Windos NT server. When the server is heavely loaded, it crashes. Sometimes after it's crashed one of the user permissions has been corrupted ( and perhaps other things have also been corrupted ), I then have to spend a considerable amount of time fixing up the damage. When Windows NT 3.5 is powering up it says it's build number 807, so there have bee 806 previous attempts and it's still unstable. I use FreeBSD at home and I haven't been able to make it crash by loading it up.I can untar something from tape, gunzip something and compile something else all the same time, it slows but doesn't stop. I've found FreeBSD to be very stable. My thanks to all the core team. Best regards, Ian Wynne ianw@ee.su.oz.au
