The point of the "virtual appliance" scenario is that the underlying OS is largely irrelevant. Just like many of the physical appliances you might have might run some form of *nix internally -- it's just a platform to deliver the application. You don't have to worry about installing/configuring/maintaining an OS, you're just using the appliance's application. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
