>From the Red Hat 9 "Getting Started Guide" Appendix D: /usr/ - Contains files and directories directly relating to users of the system, such as programs and supporting library files /opt/ - Directory where optional files and programs are stored. This Directory is used mainly by third party developers for easy installation and un-installation of their software packages. I thought that makes their stance (as in Red Hat) pretty clear. I'm pretty new to this. Is this a non-standard way of doing thing then? Adam Cooper
