But the argument can be made, again, that if you are familiar with a distro, then it's not as big a deal. In my job, my coworkers & I often times write scripts, be they Perl or Bash scripts, that rewrite, or alter configuration files. Myself, I am very familiar with Gentoo, Slackware & RedHat (CentOS) and can find any config file I generally want... and all three distros vary greatly from one another. This goes the same for people who like SuSe & Debian, even though myself, I don't like them at all. But... to each their own. ~ Tony E --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
