iFolder sounded like a perfect product for me and my business. It goal: to transparently integrate a network file system into desktop experience. Where you can store, backup, share, access file from any location that is networked is awesome. The transfer are encrypted and there is a full featured easy to use web admin portion. It would be awesome for simple collaborative file exchange activities,
However, do not even try to install this product on fedora core (It might be easier on fedora core 5 because on the mono integration, I don't) or rhel or any derivative. The dependencies need are just insane. The first being mono which is way enough to install. The pain start when you need to install log4net (which no rpm i found exists). Since it is built in.NET framework it require you to setup nant. My god, I've been using linux for 10+ years now on a daily basis but this was completely painful.
SUSE must be taking a page from the Apple notebook. Build a great product and use it to push your OS. Which is fine, using virtualization does solve this issue since you can just create a slice of SUSE.
I've been using switchvox now for the past year and I can only say positive things about it. It's built on top of astericks and has a ton of options/stability/fixes added to it. The configuration management web addtion makes setting up your phone system and managing it a breeze. It handles POTS and VOIP integration, and can save you money.
I initially used asterisks and it worked well. However it become a burden to constantly manage a phone system, especially since I had other responsibilities. The best lesson I learned is spend a little money and save a crap load of time. Basically, what linksys did for the router switchvox will do for the pbx.
While we are own this subject of VOIP services. I would like to find one the plugs seemlessly into asterisk [www.asterisk.org].
I do not like the idea going from digital signal through VOIP convert to analog for asterisk then it converts back to digital.
I would like to stay digital all the way. Asterisk can handle ADSI, SIP and H.323. Vonage I think uses a property version of SIP, which is sucky. Anyone have anyluck integrating the two?
Could some please explain to me how it will not be possible to make an exact duplicate of a SDMI file or a divx file and the duplicate will not work... If you do an exact image I do not understand why that one will not run?
I would like a temperature reading on the processors durring the tests... I know that when I run my windows machiene and Linux machiene at idle I get a 5-10 degree temperature difference (In Linux's favor)...

I also want to see vanilla installs of the two competing operating systems... Commpared to when they both are tweaked... I wonder how much of the Window NT 4.0 server is really in from the distro CD or is it highly optimized code that can do only a couple of things really well and do the rest poorly?
Your article in not just poorly written it also distorts many facts.

This is about the worst analogy you could have ever written. I believe a more accurate one would have been: The Open Source Movement reminds me of democracy. Richard Stallman's Jefferson rants about the evils of the profit motive and multinational corporations. Linus Torvalds' Washington laughs about world domination.
This argument sure make a hell of a lot more sense. Linux and the OS Movement is all about freedom for everyone who uses computers. I believe Linux is my savior and helped me fight back at the tyrannical grip Microsoft had on me. Continuing my analogy, Bill Gates' George III represents everything wrong in the computer industry. I believe the computing body as a whole has a right to stand up to this and demand or create something better. Not only do we have a right but we have a duty. Just as our forefathers had a duty to free the American people from the grasp of British.

I really do not know where you are getting your facts from.. I wonder if you are just pulling this out of your ass to try to get a rise out of people. This kind of FUD shows how out of touch you are with this topic. Linux has state of the art technology running very competitively vs. any other unix and Microsoft WinX platforms. I really do not know what you are trying to say when you make comments like.

These are completely idiotic and absurd. The most application that is compiled on a windows machine and a linux machine runs about 10-15% faster on Linux plus about 5-10 degrees cooler on the processor. If you are implying that there is no computer business in Linux, you are very mistaken, Oracle, Sybase, DB2 and other big database have released their products for Linux as well as variety of other companies.

Again you have outdone yourself. The first line of code that is every was written for Linux would be at least half that number. If you are trying to poke fun a POSIX then you ar even more of an idiot. It is so important to have a standard, Linux is not like Microsoft and redefines the standards where they see it. And do not even start to say that Microsoft is re-designing due a more complicated and better design. More complicated, probably, yet time and time again Microsoft has proven itself to create very poor design with little insight in expandability and stability (Win95, MSDN, MSsql, and just about everything else with MS in front of it).

As a side note: We will be be windows. I have not doubt in my mind that Linux within ten years will successfully take the majority of the market share. Why? Becuase people like me.. There is a lot of them, bout 5 million by my figures. I used to say to myself damn I wish I could help, with kernel devel, or gimp devel. But me being a below average coder I really could not lend. But in the workplace is a different story every day I shove Linux down the throat of my managers. My have convinced a handful of co-workers to use Linux in the workplace and then they went out and convinced their friends to try it. Now in my division of 60 about 10 people use Linux for development and and it is spreading in other divisions like a virus. Going from 0 to 10 in about a year is damn good. I caught the NT folks well off guard but now they have dug in the trenches and are prepared for a long war.
I am personally going to switch to debain once they come out with another major release. My personal experiences with redhat have not been good. I remember when they tried to purchase linux.com a while back... They just through money at the for the domain and probally would have just linked it to redhat.com. I think they are getting to powerful and are out of touch for their user base. I have been following Linux for about 2 years now and switching off between windowmaker and enlightenment for a while now.. Both well written managers... I'm suprised to see how redhat would treat the original author of such a prestigous piece of software. I say the entire redhat is at fault just not one guy. The redhat corporation had to make a choise bettween rasterman and the un-named manager and the obvously chose the manager... thus supporting his stance and the subject... this is a bunch of crap and im personally offended

I would like to be able to have DID (Direct Inward Dialing) however I have not found a VOIP company that supports that.
