Ok, I admit the Solaris version question was stupid. It was late at
night and I wasn't thinking. But I was serious about the IRIX
question.
About four years ago when I used to admin Solaris machines and the
occassional IRIX machine I had an FAQ listing some differences between
the two OS. I used it whenever I had to work on an SGI. It could be
that this particular document is no longer around or is way out of
date. That is why I'm posting to this news group looking for it.
Since you have such a superior knowledge of google why don't you tell
me how to search google for this doc. I've tried various combinations
of the words Solaris, SGI, IRIX, FAQ, comparison and difference.
