Yes, the kernel does have a Debian signature (it was built on a Debian box, they _are_ using Debian for their workstations), but the NIC itself is running a self-cobbled OS (In fact, I also found a 'powered by Redhat' gif, so I was getting real confused, and decided to ask them directly what the original base was) This will teach me to check my 'sources' next time. :) Kudos to Joey for noticing a discrepancy in the cd listing I sent him. No matter. The number of Debian based CD distros _is_ growing, I've got one I'm working on even (http://lubbock.sourceforge.net, switching to a deb based system is in the planning). Demolinux http://www.demolinux.org is now a Debian CD-based (version 2.0). Gibraltar http://gibraltar.vianova.at is a Debian CD-based router-firewall. I think there are one or 2 others also, but they slip my mind right now. Seth -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
