By the way, NetBSD was mostly net/2 and there were ALOT of changes done to ALL the diretory trees in the name of 4.4-lite integration so your earlier comment about not being much different from Net/2 is probably inaccurate. FreeBSD is supposed to be integrating 4.4-lite as well. I'm running yesterday's source tree for NetBSD on my Amiga via a SLIP link right now. It all runs very nice and there are significant additions from the 4.4-lite tree, most of it cool stuff! FYI, -Rob
