History really... A lot of us here come from USENIX, which doesn't rime so well with Windows. This also means that a lot of the discussion here have been UNIX centric, which attracts more UNIX type people, and people here probably recommend to join LOPSA to their UNIX admin colleagues. As more and more people cross over from one world to the other (or migrate to management and manage people from both sides), this will probably even out to a similar real world proportion over the long term. -- Yves. http://www.sollers.ca/ _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lopsa.org http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
