I don't know the answer to your real question (which I omited from
the quote), but I was under the impression that Linux is actually
*more* like System V. If you want a BSD I strongly recommend checking
out FreeBSD (www.freebsd.org), or its sisters NetBSD and OpenBSD.
After having some trouble with the firewalling code in the Linux 2.0
kernels, I tried out the latest version of FreeBSD and it works great.
Many say that FreeBSD is more robust and higher performance for server
tasks (specifically networking). This may not be as true with all the
changes in the Linux 2.1 kernel series, but if you're looking for a
"true" BSD you might want to check it out.
(Against it I've heard that its scheduler is less than optimal, but
for a server doing a single task you don't much care about that.)
