Yep, I remember that. DNS ain't fun.
Oooh, you know what's not fun? Installing anything on Unix. I did that for the first time yesterday. I don't CARE how great an operating system it is, anything that won't automatically read a cd when you put it in the drive sucks. And that's the technical term.
However, I installed the software properly, and only one guy got his data hosed, and that was my boss's fault anyway.
Unix is for dweebs. Just don't tell them that. Sure, it's real nice for apps that just run and run and don't have any mods to the OS or the app. Runs just fine. I've got some Unix boxes and some Linux boxes doing some special-purpose stuff. They run great, but so does everything else. But would I drop a Linux OS onto a laptop for somebody that travels and has to remote connect to the company every day? Hell no...
But of course the same is true of *any* OS. Hell... DOS 5 ran perfectly well too, as long as you didn't try to do anything complicated with it.
What really fun, after the *nix dweebies get through trashing MS for bug fixes... is to remind them that *nix patches are now numbered at somewhere around 30,000 plus. The bug fixes for *nix are still an order of magnitude greater than the bug fixes for any MS OS.
Not that it will really matter...
