The main client is a MacBook running Sierra (the poxy thing doesn't seem to like High Sierra), as FreeBSD for all its advantages is a piss-poor client. I have images of NetBSD etc lying around somewhere, to try on new boxen. And I keep a tame Debian laptop to see what the penguins have broken on my projects[*]... > Also, OSX is "the Windows of the Unix world". I was calling Linux that a fair while before OSX came along. [*] Just one example: it's 'stty -f ..." on most systems, but "stty -F" on Penguin/OS. Why? -- Dave Horsfall DTM (VK2KFU) "Those who don't understand security will suffer."
