benf Posted December 15, 2005 Author Posted December 15, 2005 (edited) Wow thanks jondercik that was a quick reply, which of the above are open source, apart form linux - is unix and netware open source? Edited December 15, 2005 by benf
jondercik Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 Generally no, but they do have the ability to run alot of open source apps but the core OS is closed source.
-I- Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 linux is open source: - and has many good distributions: some example: [*]Fedorra Directory Server (based on Redhat): a good Network server (like MS Directory Services) [*]Complete Webserver (CWS) A verre good Out of the Box Webserver installation[*]Zenwalk linux Small Lighweight Desktop linux, with just 1 aplication for every task its enought to get the job done. also there is Open Solaris, and windows 3.11 for workgroups
