Hi the question that i have is probably really simple.
but i'm more used to a windows environment.
basically, my current CMS (built in PHP) is built to run in a windows environment.
i was told that i need to test it on a linux box as it will soon be transferred over to a linux box. I managed to get php and mysql installed on the linux box, only to find out that the CMS is no longer going to be hosted on Linux, but unix.
I don't have a unix box to test on, but since Linux is a build from unix, am i right in assuming that if the CMS works on Linux it will also wotk on unix.

Never assume but it should be close if it doesn't. Linux is not a build from Unix but is Unix-like. One quick and easy way to find out is to install FreeBSD, which is a direct decendent from Unix. A quicker and easier install would be PC-BSD which would be more like Ubuntu.

The war of the OSes was won a long time ago.
Unix has always been, and will continue to be, the Server OS in the form

Linux is a free operating system that was created by Linus Torvalds
when he was a student at the University of Helsinki in 1991. Torvalds
started Linux by writing a kernel - the heart of the operating system
- partly from scratch and partly by using publicly available
software. Torvalds then released the system to his friends and to a
community of "hackers" on the Internet and asked them to work with it
and enhance it. It took off.

In most modern distributions of Linux and Unix (at least ones with graphical environments like KDE, Gnome or XFCE), you get to mount your partitions easily from the desktop. In some cases however, it isn't that easy.
Note, that all of these commands have to be run in a terminal as root user. To open a terminal (sometimes called a console), either press ALT+F2 and type xterm (alternatives could be konsole or terminal) or press CRTL+ALT+F1 to...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
