Unless you are referring to BYU's streaming video feeds: http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph?site=lds.org OS: F5 Big-IP (front end) Server: IBM_HTTP_Server http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph?site=mormontabernaclechoir.org OS: Linux Server: AOLserver/3.3.1+ad13 Streaming video and voice for the MormonTabernacleChoir.org is coming from v24.lscache6.c.youtube.com right now. That is sffe running on Linux. The MormonTabernacleChoir.org also makes extensive use of i1.ytimg.com, and i2.ytimg.com, both aliases to ytimg.l.google.com which uses the GFE/2.0 server running on, you guessed it - Linux. But they have the advantage of starting late in the game and going for the best stuff. As for BYU TV, once you go down that track it is kind of hard to switch horses while you are going at full gallop. Also, both Microsoft-IIS/6.0 & Microsoft-IIS/7.0 offer spying features that once you get used to them make them awfully hard to give up. Pointy headed managers like that kind of stuff. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
