I find it difficult to believe that they `learned from BSD's mistakes' given that they do so many things in a way that's so obviously inferior to the BSD stack. I think there are a lot of improvements that could be made to the BSD stack, but there's no question that, as it stands, the BSD stack is far more modular and better written. cjs -- Curt Sampson cjs@portal.ca Info at http://www.portal.ca/ Internet Portal Services, Inc.
