sorry, one last point.  i will shut up after this.

someone emailed me and challenged me to send him the size of 
a file on ftp.cygnus.com.  meaning that i have no facts, or skills to
acquire facts to support my own points.  among many things that i have been
accused of in this thread, including being called a newbie (which, for
those of you who do know, i.e. readers of comp.os.vxworks and its FAQ which
i created and maintained for years, i am not, even though i rarely post to this
newsgroup), etc.  i could not believe that i was actually challenged to
prove that i know how to use FTP.  i have WRITTEN FTP for more than one
operating system (vxWorks and a custom realtime OS), not to mention the
entire TCP/IP suite for two operating systems (vxWorks and a version of
motorola SVR3 UNIX).   sigh...  for whatever's worth, to prove that i do
know how to use FTP, and where cygnus ftp site is:

majipoor.cygnus.com:/pub/embedded
ncftp>dir crossgcc-2.6.1.patch.gz
-rw-r--r--  1 79       1002        47130 Nov  8 12:38 crossgcc-2.6.1.patch.gz

sigh... i am on crossgcc mailing list for heaven's sake...

here's a very very old mirrored copy of my OWN free realtime OS on
ftp.cygnus.com:

majipoor.cygnus.com:/pub/embedded
ncftp>dir free.tar.gz
-rwxrwxr-x  1 70       1002        18949 Feb  3  1994 free.tar.gz

if my own stuff is on their ftp site, it seems clear that i have  known
where to find cygnus FTP site was, not to mention various files on it.
just where do you think i got those marketing quotes from?

sigh....

bye,
