I believe that Linux is pretty much compliant with the Single Unix Specification (v3) which is what you have to be to be eligible for the Unix brand. However, in common parlance, I still see people making a distinction between Unix, BSD, and Linux, even though BSD is as Unix as can be and there's more commonality between BSD, Linux and say Solaris than there is between Ultrix, SCO OpenServer, AIX and HPUX. -- Alan Shutko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - I am the rocks.
