:I don't think we got the live reboot thang to work under Mac, either,
:but I'm not sure, having not touched that directly.
Well... I could swing it, with some work, under Open Transport... I haven't
the foggiest if it would work under the older API. Seriously, though... why
bother? If it's running background like that, either wait another month and
buy MacOS X Server (formerly Rhapsody, and an awesome port of NeXT's OS, if
a little Macified) (Please, please, please Apple, don't overprice it! I can
*not* afford it if you do, and this beta seed's not enough!) or wait a year
more for MacOS X - either way, you have a just-under-POSIX complient OS and
BSD based unix... and can compile the BSD port to the Mac environment. That
just-under bit... I still haven't found out what part of POSIX it *doesn't*
comply with. I'll let you know when I do.
