They broke some Unix semantics in the name of generality to the non-unix world. Sun claims it to be a non-unix specific design. What do you see as the major problems? "Considerable work" doesn't sound right. It seems to run with MS-DOS and VMS as far as I know. So, it's not too Unix-specific. ---rick
