We have sections where you can ask nearly anything you want. If your problem is a linux problem, ask there. If your problem is a HP-UX one, ask there. It makes sense to separate things by OS because the answers and troubleshooting steps are completely different depending on what your OS is -- and we
want people thinking about what system they have, so we don't have to prompt them repeatedly to explain trivial things like their OS and version and shell piecemeal. If they're uncertain, we even have a general purpose 'hardware' forum.
This may not be immediately obvious to a new user though, I suppose. How would you suggest this forum encourage and show users where to post?
