3/17 Mcafee VirusScan now requires Internet Explorer 4.0 or above.
This is the end of the world.
\_ And I feel fine.
\_ Don't you listen to Microsoft? Internet Explorer IS a part of
the operating system. Don't let those LINsUX freaks tell you
that IE'S JUST A USER PROGRAM MAN.
\_ all user programs are slaves to the MCP. who believes
in users anyhow?
\_ That isn't as bad as QuickBooks 2000. It requires IE 5.0!
Makes me sad that I actually helped develop the product -phale
\_ How can it run in ie4.0? Isn't ie5.0 mandatory and without which
you don't have a fully functional OS?
\_ Even with IE 5.0 you won't have a fully functionaly OS.
To get that on your PC, you need to try http://www.sun.com or
http://www.kernel.org or http://www.freebsd.org
\_ NO WAY MAN. UNIX IS LAME. WINDOWS IS RAD MAN. WINDOWS
IS THE STANDARD OS. USE WINDOWS. |

The people at 57 AmNet Computers have been nice enough to replace our internal master server for us. Some broken firewalls or gateways may have problem connecting to ECN-enabled servers.

The Linux Kernel Archives are now powered by a new Compaq ProLiant DL380 G2 with 1 TB of disk generously provided by 59 Hewlett-Packard. The Linux Kernel Archives Mirror System To improve access for everyone, a number of sites around the world have provided mirrors of this site, which may be faster to use than the master archive itself. To guard against Trojan mirror sites, all files originating at the Linux Kernel Archives are 61 cryptographically signed. If you are getting a message that the verification key has expired, please see 62 this link. Linux is a clone of the operating system Unix, written from scratch by Linus Torvalds with assistance from a loosely-knit team of hackers across the Net. It aims towards POSIX and 63 Single UNIX Specification compliance. It has all the features you would expect in a modern fully-fledged Unix, including true multitasking, virtual memory, shared libraries, demand loading, shared copy-on-write executables, proper memory management, and TCP/IP networking. Linux was first developed for 32-bit x86-based PCs (386 or higher). These days it also runs on (at least) the 64 Compaq Alpha AXP, Sun 65 SPARC and 66 UltraSPARC, 67 Motorola 68000, 68 PowerPC, 69 PowerPC64, 70 ARM, 71 Hitachi SuperH, 72 IBM S/390, 73 MIPS, 74 HP PA-RISC, 75 Intel IA-64, 76 DEC VAX, 77 AMD x86-64 and 78 CRIS architectures. Linux is easily portable to most general-purpose 32- or 64-bit architectures as long as they have a paged memory management unit (PMMU) and a port of the 79 GNU C compiler (gcc). Linux has also been ported to a number of architectures without a PMMU, although functionality is then obviously somewhat limited. If you're new to Linux, you don't want to download the kernel, which is just a component in a working Linux system. Instead, you want what is called a distribution of Linux, which is a complete Linux system. There are numerous distributions available for download on the Internet as well as for purchase from various vendors; Note, however, that most distributions are very large, so unless you have a very fast Internet link you may want to save yourself some hassle and purchase a CD-ROM with a distribution; More Information There is much 86 information about Linux on the web. This legal notice applies to cryptographic software only. The continued freedom to create and use free software is always in danger. Unfortunately, some interests seem to use the tragic events of September 11, 2001 as an excuse for wide-ranging infringement on civil liberties, some of which may threaten the very ability to create free software at all. Please refer to the 95 Electronic Frontier Foundation, 96 Center for Democracy and Technology or the 97 Electronic Privacy Information Center for more information. Please do not send general Linux questions or bug reports to these addresses. If your message does not relate to the operation of the Linux Kernel Archives, it will be deleted without action. |

FreeBSD is an advanced operating system for x86 compatible, AMD64, Alpha, IA-64, PC-98 and UltraSPARC architectures. It is derived from BSD, the version of UNIX developed at the University of California, Berkeley. It is developed and maintained by 56 a large team of individuals. Additional 57 platforms are in various stages of development. Cutting edge features FreeBSD offers advanced networking, performance, security and compatibility 58 features today which are still missing in other operating systems, even some of the best commercial ones. Powerful Internet solutions FreeBSD makes an ideal 59 Internet or Intranet server. It provides robust network services under the heaviest loads and uses memory efficiently to maintain good response times for thousands of simultaneous user processes. Run a huge number of applications The quality of FreeBSD combined with today's low-cost, high-speed PC hardware makes FreeBSD a very economical alternative to commercial UNIX workstations. It is well-suited for a great number of both desktop and server 60 applications. Easy to install FreeBSD can be installed from a variety of media including CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, floppy disk, magnetic tape, an MS-DOS partition, or if you have a network connection, you can install it directly over anonymous FTP or NFS. FreeBSD is free While you might expect an operating system with these features to sell for a high price, FreeBSD is available 62 free of charge and comes with full source code. If you would like to try it out, 63 more information is available. Contributing to FreeBSD It is easy to contribute to FreeBSD. All you need to do is find a part of FreeBSD which you think could be improved and make those changes (carefully and cleanly) and submit that back to the Project by means of send-pr or a committer, if you know one. This could be anything from documentation to artwork to source code. See the 64 Contributing to FreeBSD article for more information. Even if you are not a programmer, there are other ways to contribute to FreeBSD. The 65 FreeBSD Foundation is a non-profit organization for which direct contributions are fully tax deductible. USA Silicon Breeze has also sculpted and cast the BSD Daemon in metal and is now donating 15% of all proceeds from these statuettes back to the FreeBSD Foundation. The complete story and information on how to order a BSD Daemon is available from 67 this page.
