I helped install an early version of Solaris at UMass/Boston, back when it was brand new. We had a long-running community rant about how "broken" it was -- where "broken" in that context really meant non-BSD. Ah, the innocent, carefree days of youth... :-). In any case, I left the school around 1987. -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix ICQ 28611923 / AIM abreauj / JABBER [EMAIL PROTECTED] / YAHOO abreauj Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] / WWW http://www.abreau.net / PGP-Key-ID 0xD5C7B5D9 PGP-Key-Fingerprint 72 FB 39 4F 3C 3B D6 5B E0 C8 5A 6E F1 2C BE 99
