Hear,hear! I am really perplexed on what ISC thinks this move is going to
do for them. What they say, and I quote from the release notes..."Copy
protection has been added for the base operating system and selected optional
extensions in response to requests from INTERACTIVE UNIX System resellers."
(pp.3-4). Now the question is can any of the resellers out there confirm this
claim?? I find this a little hard to believe.
