I blinked and it was gone. :(
I had a look on the Caterer site as I know some members ocasionally visit, I was the only one on. It is a shame they dont enjoy the membership enthusiasm we have on here.

Not sure if I've ever mentioned it before, but Linux sucks. Useless, crappy, amateur OS  >:(
may I suggest that there might be problem with your qualification more then with linux itself?
I'm using it couple years at home, a bit at work - all the problems I've had - were "/dev/curve/hands" problem then linux itself ;)

p.s. may be I can help?

Unfortunately, I have to support the useless OS day in day out at work - which is why I have an inherent distrust of it ;D.  Linux seems to have picked out all the bad bits from both Unix and Windows  :-/

I doubt if anyone could live long enough to pick out all the bad bits in Unix.   :)

Linux is now a government standard - there's a recommendation for you :)

But I really don't think I'd want to use Windows as a platform for any high security, high performance system involving more than, say, a couple of hundred users.

It's quite a difficult choice these days. :)

The government projects I work on tend to use either Solaris or Windows.

Windows is pretty secure if built and maintained properly, certainly moreso than Linux imho.  Scales up to a point, but realy dependent on app and how its written.

The only one of those 3 that I have ever had compromised on a internet connection is Linux. The kernel decided that IPTABLES no longer needed any process time.  Never had an attack on a Windows box that was successful that was the fault of the core OS.
