<PRE>
Well met,

Allow me to introduce myself. I am a network administrator of
a mixed UNIX/Windows */Novell network and part-time programmer in a myriad of
languages. 
I am 20 years old and currently reside in the South of Rotterdam, the
Netherlands.

The reason I joined the list is I love RPG's and I am currently developing a
codebase and hope the list can help me with certain aspects of the codebase.

I am also currently in the prospect of reading all the past mails whenever I
have
some spare time, although my current workschedule eats/ate about 75 hours a
week, so no need to worry I will 'spam' the list any time soon =)

When developing a Multi-User Environment, do you find knowledge of how operating
systems work handy? I mean, as far as I see it now, a lot of status flags, Inter
Proces Communication and user interoperability resembles the way modern
operating systems work. I am
currently delving into the book Modern Operating Systems 2nd Ed. by Andrew S.
Tanenbaum and find many similiarities between mud operations and Operating
Systems. Any thoughts on this matter?

Also, which books are recommended to start with network programming, preferably
TCP/IP based and for C/C++. Also, if ye know of an OS independant booktitle, it
would be preferred, as I am at the moment working on Windows NT, and have to
wait with installing FreeBSD when my extra HD arrives...

Thanks for yer time,

--
