Hi,
I'm a  newbie to Unix and C. I have successfully dabbled with slackware for
a while but am finding it a little overwhelming when I have to solve
problems with in a tight time frame, particularly with no real
documentation.

I get the impression that both caldera and RH5 are easer to setup and
'drive' and am thinking of moving to one of these.

What I'm doing is soliciting opinions and experiences to help me decide.

Here are some other things I have to consider:
* This machine will be in a netware environment and caldera's dist comes
with proprietery clients tools for this.
* I may be about to have a SPARC 20 fall in my lap and RH5 exists for SPARC
I believe? Does calderas?
* One program I want to run requires a package called LinuxThreads, which I
know RH5 comes with installed. I have not been able to get this going under
slackware 3.something. Does caldera come with this?
* I'll be having PC's and Macs access this machine.
Thanks for any comments,
Glenn
( If your news reader lets you email straight to me and the forum, I'd
appreciate it, thanks again)\
