A New List For Clustering NetBSD

Posted by Hemos on from the collect-'em-together dept.

jschauma writes "The NetBSD Project has created a new mailing list, tech-cluster. As the name suggests, this list is intended for technical discussions on building and using clusters of NetBSD hosts. Initially, this list is expected to be of low volume, but we hope to advocate and advance the use of NetBSD in such environments significantly. Subscription is via majordomo -- please see this page for details."

    Now I can learn how to build a cluster out of all of those Timex data watches, palms, and toasters cluttering my basement ...

      Like they say, windows and NetBSD are toaster OSes.

      Windows turns your computer into a toaster.

      NetBSD turns your toaster into a computer.

    Not quite. I think they're planning to have a separate front-page post for every ACK packet relayed by the BSD clustering mailing lists' smtp servers.
