  Hi Glenn. I'm a newbie and had Caldera installed in less than 2 hours. I was
on the net in about 3 hours. It took me months trying to get Redhat 4.2 to do
the same. I never got RH connected to the net. That's why I tried Caldera. I
don't know if Caldera comes with the software you require, I'm still trying to
figure all this new UNIX/Linux stuff out. But, it does come with a ton of
software, I find new apps everyday. Bye.
