[snip] SmartOS uses Illumos as upstream and was used by Joyent Inc. until last year when Joyent sold that part of the buiness to MNX. It is a very real thing being used as a cloud container like OS. See https://www.tritondatacenter.com/smartos for more info... The last $DAYJOB I had for a pretty big retail company used it for its private, in house cloud. It is all open source, as it is based upon OpenSolaris (SVR4ish) at its core but it has been mentioned that isn't quite SVR2 for the Vax. -- Brad Spencer - brad@anduin.eldar.org - KC8VKS - http://anduin.eldar.org
