Lots of questions. I have some double-headed UltraSPARC III blades with 1 or 2 Gigs of RAM doing nothing in the basement that I could in theory contribute to a good cause. The only thing I'm not sure of is how I could get them hooked up to the network. We are very strictly firewalled and I'll very certainly get into trouble for providing a reverse ssh or a login server. I used to play with OpenSolaris on those, but now basically their are just heating the air because of the catastrophic lack of time... In what concerns the unobtainium, I'm not sure how it makes sense at all since it's discontinued anyways. > Is it silly to ask 'what the Mock is?' Don't lmgtfy.com me, Ok? Not it's not. Mock is basically just a frontend to rpmbuild ala pbuilder, which takes care of setting up clean chroots and resolving dependencies for predictable and reproducible package rebuilds. -- Sincerely yours, Yury V.
