I don't know if this is the case on all commerical *nix but /opt is typically bigger than /usr on them, and on the machines I admin is much larger. So I guess the many networks planned that way (large /usr) are all Linux networks? /usr/opt isn't defined in FHS so would probably not be a good idea. Chris
