Re: Beginning of the end for xDSL?

Bayard, I don't read this as "the end of xDSL", but I do read it as the end of the "little guy" buying some xDSL capacity from "the big guy", then re-selling it. I think "the big guy" is going to sell it directly, just like they sold telephone service for so many years. "Baby Bell", yeah...a 2

Hi, Can somebody direct me to a very authoritative site dealing with MySQL, and where I can download the latest version of it? Also is there someone that can spend a couple of hours tutoring, over the net, some of my Indian software engineers in its use? Thanks. John == John Redding

RE: bash shell scripting questions

I haven't come across any probs between the ksh and bash shells for basic scripts. I started scripting in bash but moved to ksh (mostly because it's pretty standard on both unix and linux boxes, while it's hard to find bash on unix machines). Both ksh and bash have the philosophy of improving bo

It's still only getting the file list from disk1. What bothers me is the fact that the command works from the command line, but not from within the script. I've never had this happen before! (Really!) On Tue, 23 Jan 2001, Bruce Dawson wrote: > Instead of 'ls', try: > > find $1 -name \*.jp
