What reasons?
The guy says that he's too lazy to read the rpm man page,
and that's why you hate rpm?
rpm -ql will give you a complete list of the files in a package.

The Microsoft Aaron R. Kulkis software module is not working.
I'm sure there's a logical explaination for this.

You were lucky. In 1997, Microsoft was still insisting that
NT 4.0 was as good as UNIX. This was during Service pack 1 and 2,
and even with Wolfpack Windows NT was just too labor intensive.
Besides, the passive standby server approach often didn't cut over
properly or took too long to cutover.
Windows 2000 is more reliable than Windows NT. A cluster of 4 Windows 2000
machines creates a moderately reliable system. It isn't as reliable as UNIX,
or even Linux clusters, and it's very resource intensive.
Microsoft has been making claims that with enough clustered systems, they can
do the Job. Ironically, most of their attempts to displace Linux, FreeBSD,
and Solaris have not met expectations.
Microsoft fits a very small niche, and it's flanked at the low-end by Linux
which smoothly goes to very high performance systems (for example Google's
1000 Linux processors). At the higher end, you have Solaris systems which
start at a low-end at $1000 and go to E10K and IBM offers their B-20 to S-80
or S/390s.
The market available to Microsoft's servers is rapidly shrinking.
Microsoft got a nice hit when the new domain roots were published
and bounced up from 19.6% to 21.4% based on "vanity" accounts
from squatters hoping to cash in on corporations who didn't get
their .tv, and .biz domains.
In the active server survey, Microsoft still pales compared to Apache and the
Open Source solutions. True, some of these are also backed by Websphere or
other Application Servers, but Microsoft still can't really claim any great
victories.
http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph?site=www.hotmail.com&find_site=Examine
shows some of the Windows systems running for only a few weeks,
while the FreeBSD machines have been running since June 1999.
The fact is that many Linux and FreeBSD systems can go years without a
reboot. I believe Netcraft puts the longest uptime on a currently running
accessible server an almost 4 years.

I think it's only 4 boxes. You can't exceed the capacity of a
single machine or you'll take down the backup server.

Precisely. If you have to reboot Windows 2000 servers every 20 days and
Linux servers every 180 days, and Solaris servers every 365 days and S/390
servers every 2 years, you have much lower staffing requirements (staff can
be deployed to handle real projects like creating programs to handle the
regulatory requirements and custom needs of the enterprise.

Actually, Windows NT clusters were a nightmere to set up.
Windows 2000 is easier but it's still no picnic. Then you
have reboots, and partition management (since you can't put
partitions in the middle of the directory hierarchy.
Finally, you need more servers since Windows 2000 STILL works
much better with one or two major service processes running hundreds
of MTS threads.
This of course means that you are still locked into shrink-wrapped solutions
that must be compiled and linked together by the manufacturer. Very hard to
customize the solution to your requirements. If you want custom software for
Windows 2000, you have to bring in consultants who have to pretty much "start
from scratch" or a much more limited shrink-wrapped solution.
With Linux/UNIX, you have a huge pool of Opensource baseline which can
quickly be customized by consultants and managed internally. Or you can even
have some of the custom work done in-house.

Absolutely correct. A Himalaya is so good at keeping itself properly
configured that you have to very deliberately tell it you want it all to go
down, and even that is only for firmware changes.
Microsoft's role is that the Himalaya system feeds trade statistics to the
Microsoft server who puts it in the database (in fact, it is delayed before
it is inserted). Then the quotes are served via an ASP/IIS web server bank.
Ironically, the key to the reliability is the Cisco router (UNIX) which farms
the load to the various Web servers.

Actually, that would be a non-stop system. Himalaya has only

Well, considering that you regard a discussion of basketball to be
"grossly out of place" in a basketball newsgroup, your perspective
isn't very reliable, Marty.

H: "Having found not one single carbon monoxide leak on the entire
premises, it is my belief, and Willard concurs, that the reason
you folks feel listless and disoriented is simply because
you are lazy, stupid people"
I: Loren Petrich's 2-week stubborn refusal to respond to the
challenge to describe even one philosophical difference
between himself and the communists demonstrates that, in fact,
Loren Petrich is a COMMUNIST ***hole
J: Other knee_jerk reactionaries: billh, david casey, redc1c4,
The retarded sisters: Raunchy (rauni) and Anencephielle (Enielle),
also known as old hags who've hit the wall....
A: The wise man is mocked by fools.
B: Jet Silverman plays the fool and spews out nonsense as a
method of sidetracking discussions which are headed in a
direction that she doesn't like.
C: Jet Silverman claims to have killfiled me.
D: Jet Silverman now follows me from newgroup to newsgroup
...despite (C) above.
E: Jet is not worthy of the time to compose a response until
her behavior improves.
F: Unit_4's "Kook hunt" reminds me of "Jimmy Baker's" harangues against
adultery while concurrently committing adultery with Tammy Hahn.
G: Knackos...you're a retard.
