Yeah, that and a digital certificate.
The certificate is a new one on me...I wonder how you get one of those?

man?!?
Just because you're "familiar with all levels of UNIX administration", doesn't mean you actually use one....
;-)
And besides, until they allow us to start up 'man' with 'less' instead of 'more', man will forever remain the vi of help!
(But thanks for the info, Scott...Filed appropriately in the "When I finally get Linux lit at home" file!)

Guilty as charged....
But I'm chomping at the bit for a useful 2.6 kernel distro...so I can start prosyletising the masses to use Linux in the embedded space (where I work!).

Debian.
aptitude install kernel-image-2.6-686 (or kernel-image-2.6-k7 if you have an Athlon)

Just found out that SuSE 9.1's got it
Available in May (which is about as long as it'll take to get my wife to agree to let me spend the $90 (SMRP) on it...;-) )
And I don't mind spending money on Novell (even though the just about finished the job Micros~1 started on my beloved WordPerfect).

And we see that their filter worked
Any Unix admin who won't look in a man page doesn't deserve the job. Anyone who thinks that they are familiar with all levels of Unix administration who can't set up Cygwin if they don't have Linux, probably isn't as familiar as initially claimed.
And on my system, at least, man actually does use less. Not being a sysadmin, I don't know what the trick is. (Note, I'm not qualified for their job either.) But it didn't take much testing to verify that I have extensions in man that are from less...
Cheers,
Ben

That can't be it
$PAGER isn't set locally.

Then you have sensible default
I tried to set it to "more", and more was used.
That's how things are supposed to work. PAGER, EDITOR and there probably are more.

As I already admitted to Scott...
...I don't even pretend to be qualified.
(Although, it would be an interesting exercise to pretend to be qualified, and find out how far I get...)
