Hi,
Well, on Linux 2.2 IPv6/IPng it is already supported. I don't remember
exactly starting with what version of Linux they have already support
IPv6 but for instance BSDI also is supporting.
So I think we must support quite soon IPv6/IPng for a lot of
Client-Server application which will gonna b
Well and more details from mailing list is that there is no "standard"
for IPv6 yet.
Somebody could explain a little bit here what really means this when

Hi list,
My problem is solved. Since I changed my SCSI to a Quantum, I haven't have
more problem with performance.
I recompiled the pwd_mkdb.c program using more RAM memory and the
performance became better. Before compilation the "delete user" operation
takes 3 minutes, and now the same operat

Likewise. I find myself never needing to change device permissions.
I do wish however that there were some sort of "template" options for
classes of names.

Hi,
I have a couple of questions about the way 'out of swap' situations are
handled in FreeBSD. Not that my system often runs out of swap, I'm just
being curious:
When the system runs out of swap space, it is supposed to kill the
'biggest' process to regain some space.

On the other hand, sendmail is easier to extract and isolate (there are

The three of them are on the ports tree. mawk and gawk are GPL'd, nawk
is not.
I'm not sure if nawk is fully POSIX compliant but it is the "new" awk
described in Kernighans' book.
Yes mawk is the fastest of the three, but I'm not sure if speed is the
most important feature in a scripting langua
