Isn't that the whole point of the GPL on linux? No, it is a violation of the EULA on RedHat's server products to run them without having purchased a support agreement. It is not permitted to obtain or run RedHat Enterprise Linux without having paid for it. I'm not sure how they get away with this practice on GPL'd code, but they do. -- David McNett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://slacker.com/~nugget/ _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
