FAQ

Ho, purely as a mater of interest, would we be getting a section on O/S and Machine specific wierds? For instance the HP segment story, AIX's segment limit etc? I know a fair chunk of this is in the release notes but they aren't described well at all. For instance, our version says a SHMMAX of 256MB. brett smooth1 wrote: > > Parker, Jack wrote in message <900r2s$b9o$1@news.xmission.com>... > > > > > >You make some excellent points, this sort of wrap up should be included in > >the FAQ. > > My FAQUpdates directory now contains two entries - > > Andrews and yours... > > and I had just updated the FAQ and cleared the backlog the > other night!
