Maybe that's because I've been using Linux instead of Solaris for several years and really not thinking about going back. Solaris was a more stable solution, but Linux is really stable, too. If you really need something that's always on, never failing, a Solaris server might be better for you than a Linux server. It's not a big enough difference to matter to me, though, and the advantages of Linux are more important to me. Mike
