Nicely put mate :) I would certainly not let any of you jokers on the list pork my sister, that's for sure.
Well, certainly not the linux admins ;) Regards, Adam -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Frazer Sent: Tuesday, 22 August 2006 8:15 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [hlds] HLSW stopped picking up my server It has always seemed to me that this ceaseless and pointless religious war seems to be mostly sustained by one side and endured by the other. The extent to which a vocal subset of the linux community seems to be feel so threatened by Windows that they feel it necessary to lash out at whenever an opportunity affords itself (and often when it doesn't) never ceases to amaze and amuse me. It's just an O/S - it's NOT your sister and no one is trying to pork her. If *ix is working for you - then good on ya, mate. Live long and prosper.

It sucks badly. You can ask any linux server provider why they use linux distros. Because linux works at a higher level of performance while the CPU stays at a lower level of usage, not bottleknecked like windows does. But of course, if you take a win2003 server with a higher CPU and more ram it can run just as well as a linux box can on a lower quality CPU and lower ram. I have never seen a windows box out perform any fedora box with the same specs unless you tweak the quantums in the windows server. -------Original Message------- From: Ook Date: 08/20/06 21:00:32 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [hlds] HLSW stopped picking up my server I had to restart Winbloze. Linux is looking better and better every day. Turn on my primary workstation, and I says something about c:\windows\system32\config is missing or corrupt and windows won't start, thank you for using Microsoft products. I had to boot to linux ( I have 3 OSs on the box) and restore my winbloze installation, fortunately I had a backup). I find this somewhat disturbing. No messages in the event log. Restarted srcds, restarted hlsw. Won't connect. Restart winbloze and now it works. <shrug> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chorizo Omelet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, August 19, 2006 11:44 PM Subject: RE: [hlds] HLSW stopped picking up my server > Not this exact issue, but I did finally figure out a problem I was > having during map changes - where everyone else was connected to my > server but me! > > The problem turned out to be an older hardware firewall, which only > had half-duplex on the "wan" port!
