Hi y'all!
I thought that it might be interesting to see what operating systems other
listserv sites were running. So I ran a few UNIX commands to check. See
notes at bottom for "More details, & how you can do this yourself"
First the results...
"Generic OS" # sites
VM 105 (69 on BITNET)
UNIX 95 (43 running on Suns. Yay!)
Windows 49
OpenVMS 18 (2 on BITNET)
MORE DETAILS, AND HOW YOU CAN DO THIS YOURSELF
cat peers.names | grep system |cut -f1 -d" "| sort | uniq -c | sort -r
gave me the operating systems of the computers on BITNET...
47 :system.VM/ESA
10 :system.VM/SP
9 :system.VM/XA
5 :system.VM/HPO
2 :system.OpenVMS
and
cat intpeers.names | grep system |cut -f1 -d" "| sort | uniq -c | sort -r
let me know what OS were being used by computers on the Internet...
49 :system.Windows
31 :system.VM/ESA
31 :system.Solaris
26 :system.AIX
16 :system.OpenVMS
12 :system.SunOS
7 :system.Linux
5 :system.OSF/1
5 :system.HP-UX
4 :system.BSD/OS
3 :system.Ultrix
2 :system.VM/SP
2 :system.VM/HPO
2 :system.IRIX
1 :system.VM/XA
For those interested in Microsoft's 3d place contribution...
grep Windows intpeers.names | sort | uniq -c | sort -r
29 :system.Windows NT 3.51
19 :system.Windows NT 4.0
1 :system.Windows 95
None of this data will tell you anything about LISTSERV running on
standalone sites, of course. I don't know how significant those Intranet
numbers are. but I'd guess Windows & Unix systems might look a little more
popular...
I wonder how many keyword searches this post is going to screw up? :-)
