You have of course set the stage for WWIII. We use W2K and are very happy
with it. Frankly, hardware is cheap, put a big enough engine on a rock and
it will fly. The real point is "What are you comfortable with?". Everything
else is dross.

We are about to purchase Vertias NetBackup DataCenter for our mix of
Solaris, Windows and Linux
servers and our Oracle databases. Our IT director favors Windows for
the master server since it is less expensive and he was told it is the
better choice
since the Windows version is better supported and has more features.
However, I am going to be responsible for administering this system and
while I have many
years experience with Unix administration, I have only user-level
experience with
Windows. Would I be well-advised to advocate using a Solaris master
server instead,
or is Windows really the better choice? We have only the Dell and
Veritas salesmen's advice to
go on at this point.
Thanks,
Mark
