Open source stuff doesn't always have the money to do these things - c'est la vie. Again - this is not an enterprise list so why even bother with this here. If you want intellectual debate about db's on Enterprise Linux, do it on an Enterprise Linux list - otherwise you are just baiting and being obnoxious. Craig
