A/UX is a nice little system, fun to play with. Apache is even
available for it. It does have some security holes, but many of them
have patches, available on the Jagubox mirrors (one mirror still in
existence is at ftp://ftp.geo.tu-freiberg.de/). Also note that most of
the people who could crack System V died with the dinosaurs, so you
probably have to worry about the 7.0.1 side more than the Unix side of
things, which is to say, you needn't worry much. If I remember
correctly, GCC is also officially compatible up to GCC v3.0, and I
think 3.1 works, too, although A/UX is marked as 'obsoleted' in this
version.
Hope This Helps,
Quinn Evans

Hello all,
I've been hosting a small hobby website (www.cheapotech.net) running
MacHTTP and MacOS 8.1 on a LC 475. Sometimes it's stable for weeks,
and other times it crashes after a day or so. I'm running a minimal
extension set with this machine. Would it be better to go back to a
previous system (7.5-7.6 etc)? The other option is to switch to
debian linux. I've also recently turned up a copy of A/UX 3.1 which
I'd like to try out, but I hear it's not very secure at all. Any info
would be greatly appreciated.
TIA,
Jeff
