My experience is that most providers in Africa are much more Linux-oriented, if they aren't using either Microsoft or something ancient and proprietary like SCO. However, even though they may choose Linux instead of *BSD, they may still be more friendly to your type of usage. Have you looked at the providers at <http://directory.google.com/Top/Regional/Africa/South_Africa/Business_and_Economy/Internet/Service_Providers/>; or <http://www.ananzi.co.za/catalog/ComputersandInternet/Internet/InternetServiceProviders/>? -- Brad Knowles, <brad.knowles@skynet.be> "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania.
