They may not be. The people that write these articles sometimes do not have the full story and occasionally are clueless, themselves. Traditionally, DoD would employ Unix systems such as Solaris on command & Control and other mission-critical systems, while Windows would be an option for general desktop systems. What they may be referring to is the shutdown of their general use (MIS) WAN, rather than Operational Information Systems. -- burns _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
