I've used and installed/managed SunOS, Solaris, OpenBSD, Linux and used (not managed) QNX, FreeBSD and NetBSD. Only on Linux I've seen bash as a standard shell. csh is OK but there is tcsh which is as good as bash IMO. Yes it does have filename completion and history. I use both..:)

Thanx for the link Stephen. Yes, I did very well in chemistry, my favorite subject next to computers..:).. Interesting theory. Here's the summary:
Even further back in time than the first theory, the earth was formed from the "stuff"
of the universe.
This "stuff" contained oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen as well as very, very small organisms
called microbes.
The microbes get oxygen from the rocks and use it to change carbon and oxygen
molecules into oil and gases.
Gould supports his theory by pointing to the fact that the chemicals found on earth
are the same ones that are found on other planets. He encouraged the search for microbes
in the earth's core as well as on other planets. Partial support for his theory was recently
obtained from a Martian meteorite found on earth -- it contained microbes!
But:
That the Earth is formed of stuff from the universe is ok. But microbes are a bit more complicated than atoms. I don't think they can be part of the "stuff" from the universe.
The microbes use O and C to make gas?? AFAIK petroleum (gas and liquid) is built almost exclusively of C and H. Especially the simpler forms like for instnace methane:CH4 or even the more complicated benzene:C6H6. (In fact I can't remember a single one that contains Oxygen.) I don't see where the oxygen fits in the picture.:).. Even if it's only a catalyst they don't mention H. I don't think a microbe is capaable of breaking O down to H...
The microbes from Mars thingie. I was equaly exited when they announced that. But AFAIK the microbes were supposedly Martian ones and not space microbes.
I'll have to look deeper into this. Probably there are better explainations in the book. This little summary is not very convincing.

Cool..:).. Never heard of this theory.. Got a link or something where I can read more about it? Don't give me a google.com?serch=blbalbala..:).. It sure sounds weird.. Where do these microbes get their C and H from? How does it get inside the Earths crust? And where did it come from in the first place..:? -- "No se rinde el gallo rojo, sólo cuando ya está muerto."

First we have to stop burning so much of our plastic garbage and start recycling it cause if we now find yet another use for plastic, the oil reserves will deplete even faster. I know people have been saying for several decades "Soon we'll be out of oil" and then they find a new place to drill, but the oil is limited and does not "regenerate" at the same speed that we use it... -- "No se rinde el gallo rojo, sólo cuando ya está muerto."

I didn't take it as a flame..:).. Yes I am familiar with the fact that I can do a lot of things from the prompt _via non-standard programs/scripts_. I'm an old ms-dos junkie, but since then a lot of stuff has become point and click. My point was that Win2k as it is doesn't give you much to work with. Please do correct me if I'm wrong! I never say no to new knowledge..:).. From the prompt I normaly add/remove/check routes, change ip#, ping, and occasionally use edit.exe. Of course now I can also manage the telnet server, but tell me if I can start/stop other services? I honsetly don't know. Maybe I'm *nix blinded..:).. About the telnet death wish - I started a telnet server on the Win2k machine so of course I tested to telnet to it..:).. I hope you read that I ssh:ed to my extern unix account, so no, I don't have a telnet-deathwish. About the turning off of NTLM - I did see it while browsing the options but didn't try it. I admit..:).. Now I tryed it, set it to 0 and could log in. Then I started another telnet to the same computer and got this:
Microsoft Windows Workstation allows only 1 Telnet Client License
Server has closed connection
What's your oppinion on this?..;).. By the way, I ran help in the cmd-prompt [ahh, remember the help in ms-dos!] and saw a few "innovations" like the AT command (as in atd not ATDT)... There were a few other *nix-like things which I don't remember from ms-dos 6.x nor NT's dos (pushd, popd, findstr). Hey guys, beware, they're catching up!..;)
