AIX is one example. To get Java 1.4 on AIX you need at least AIX 5.1. And whats worse is that it also requires a certain level of hardware (Common Hardware Reference Platform). A lot of currently active AIX-servers do not meet this requirement, including our development server at work :-( > Chris -- /Reiche
