Then the bovine pointer is pretty much hidden at the bottom of the page :( Someone just started talking about the DESCHALL effort on the freebsd mailing lists, and, quite frankly, its difficult to argue against the guy's logic...DESCHALL seems to be an equivalent to genx, but, from what I've been able to tell, less...competititive. (and you have to go through some stupid password authentication procedure just to get the clients :( ) To check out the bovine stuff, which does the proxy servers, check out: http://bovine.st.hmc.edu They have complete stats there on the effort, and they pretty much seem to be what has taken over for genx, and they've done a much better and more organized job of it (and you don't need to be password authenticated to get the clients) Marc G.
