It is worth it though. :o) I used to run Squeezecenter on my Windows box, but there's too much downtime rebooting after the latest Microsoft patch etc. Solaris just stays up. And with Solaris you get ZFS, which gives you a flexible upgradable software RAID that is ridiculously easy to configure.
(I also use my Solaris machine to stream video via a "Popcorn Hour" -- roughly a video equivalent of the Squeezebox. The PH really works best with an NFS share point, which pretty much ruled out using Windows. Setting up Windows as an NFS server was so painful that I gave up in the end, but it was a one-line command to configure on Solaris!) -- matt.young ------------------------------------------------------------------------ matt.young's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10105 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49633 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
