I never said that the Webserver is running NT!
I just told to look at ubs.com to say more or less... "in the financial
sector(and other critical types of business as well)" there's no downtime
accepted.
The true backoffice[1] of UBS is NOT running on NT but on mainframe types of
beasts. Only office applications are running on NT and some NT server
applications (nothing critical).
[1] Not what you understand as Backoffice in MS-nomenclature though
And well... I'm glad for you that you know some ppl at ubs... however I'm sure
that I know more ;-)
I kind of don't understand why you advice me to be careful... what difference
would it make anyway... and why you hope that I reply...
Cheers

Now Boris,
Be very careful here. Your implication is that www.ubs.com runs under
NT. You aren't saying that are you? I know people working at UBS so
please be careful in your reply. You will reply I hope.
