[foxboro] general modeling.

Dear all,
 

I'd like to get a bit of a feel on how to integrate complex modelling,
currently done on a UNIX box, onto a Windoze only Foxboro system.

 

As far as I can see there should be no real issues with a hybrid system.
Operator workstations being Windoze boxes with a Unix host for all the
grunty stuff and process security. 

Foxboro is pushing Unix out of the equation. Mind you, they have been
saying that now for a few years and I suppose the inevitable is going to
happen one day....

 

But getting back to my initial question, what is the future of all those
(user) applications developed on the Unix platform?

Adding to that, I hate to see the I/S department deploying some upgrade
123 for package abc that requires three windoze restarts and 57 minutes
later McAfee is doing the same, requiring a restart as well, topping it
of with Windoze locking up because the second network port has somehow
lost the plot.

 

Anyone out there that have developed some sort of a plan that would get
us out of a pickle?

 

 

Cheers,

Frits Schouten.
