27、主要的操作系統(tǒng)組成龐大的工作站群，完成 了《泰坦尼克號》的特技制作，已經(jīng)算是出盡了風頭。但是對Linux來說，這只是眾多新聞 中的一個。最近，有關(guān)各廠商宣布支持Linux的新聞日趨增多，用戶對Linux的熱情也空前高 漲。那么，Linux這個只有7年多的免費操作系統(tǒng)到底有什么魅力，能夠獲得廣大用戶及Orac le、Informix、HP、Sybase、Corel、Intel、網(wǎng)景、Dell等眾多重要軟硬件廠商的青睞呢? </p&

28、gt;<p>　　1. Linux的背景和特色</p><p>　　Linux是一種“自由(Free)軟件”：所謂自由，是指用戶可以自由地獲取程序及其源代碼， 并能自由地使用他們，包括修改或拷貝等。它是網(wǎng)絡時代的產(chǎn)物，眾多的技術(shù)人員通過Inte rnet共同完成它的研究和開發(fā)，無數(shù)用戶參與了測試和除錯，并可方便地加上用戶自己編制 的擴充功能。作為自由軟件中最為出色的一個，Linux具有如下的特點：

29、</p><p>　　(1) 完全遵循POSLX標準，并擴展支持所有AT&T和BSD Unix特性的網(wǎng)絡操作系統(tǒng)。由于繼承 了Unix優(yōu)秀的設計思想，且擁有干凈、健壯、高效且穩(wěn)定的內(nèi)核，其所有核心代碼都是由Li nus Torvalds以及其他優(yōu)秀的程序員們完成，沒有AT&T或伯克利的任何Unix代碼，所以Linu x不是Unix，但Linux與Unix完全兼容。</p><

30、;p>　　(2) 真正的多任務、多用戶系統(tǒng)，內(nèi)置網(wǎng)絡支持，能與NetWare、Windows NT、OS/2、Unix 等無縫連接。網(wǎng)絡效能在各種Unix測試評比中速度最快。同時支持FAT16、FAT32、NTFS、Ex t2FS、ISO9600等多種文件系統(tǒng)。</p><p>　　(3) 可運行于多種硬件平臺，包括Alpha、SunSparc、PowerPC、MIPS等處理器，對各種新型 外圍硬件，也可

31、以從分布于全球的眾多程序員那里得到迅速地支持。</p><p>　　(4) 對硬件要求較低，可在較低檔的機器上獲得很好的性能，特別值得一提的是Linux出色 的穩(wěn)定性，其運行時間往往可以“年”計。</p><p>　　2. Linux的主要應用領(lǐng)域</p><p>　　目前，Linux的應用主要包括：</p><p>　　(1) In

32、ternet/Intranet：這是目前Linux用得最多的一項，它可提供包括Web服務器、Ftp服 務器、Gopher服務器、SMTP/POP3郵件服務器、Proxy/Cache服務器、DNS服務器等全部Inter net服務。Linux內(nèi)核支持IPalias、PPP和IPtunneling,這些功能可用于建立虛擬主機、虛擬 服務、VPN(虛擬專用網(wǎng))等。主要運行于Linux之上的Apache Web服務器，1998年的市場占有 率為

33、49%，遠遠超過微軟、網(wǎng)景等幾家大公司之和。</p><p>　　(2) 由于Linux擁有出色的聯(lián)網(wǎng)能力，因此它可用于大型分布式計算，如動畫制作、科學計 算、數(shù)據(jù)庫及文件服務器等。</p><p>　　(3) 作為可在低平臺下運行的Unix的完整(且免費)的實現(xiàn)，廣泛應用于各級院校的教學和科 研工作，如墨西哥政府已經(jīng)宣布在全國的所有中小學配置Linux并為學生提供Internet服務

34、 。</p><p>　　(4) 桌面和辦公應用。目前這方面的應用人數(shù)還遠不如微軟的Windows，其原因不僅在于Lin ux桌面應用軟件的數(shù)量遠不如Windows應用，同時也因為自由軟件的特性使得其幾乎沒有廣 告支持(雖然Star Office的功能并不亞于MS Office，但知道的人并不多)。</p><p>　　如今，通常可以通過兩個途徑獲得Linux的發(fā)行版：①直接從Inter

35、net下載，例如RedHat站 點：http://www.redhat.com;②更為方便的方法是購買Linux發(fā)行商推出的CD-ROM，這樣不 僅可以節(jié)省下載的時間和費用，還可以使用CD-ROM直接啟動快速安裝，并且CD-ROM上往往還 包括非常龐大的應用軟件集(多達數(shù)百兆)，包括各種服務器軟件、X-Window、桌面應用、數(shù) 據(jù)庫、編程語言、文檔等，安裝和使用都非常方便。</p><p>　　3. Linu

36、x能成為一種主流操作系統(tǒng)嗎?</p><p>　　面對日益增強的來自用戶的壓力，越來越多的商業(yè)公司將其應用移植到Linux平臺，1998年較為重要的事件有：</p><p>　　①Compaq和HP決定對提出要求的用戶在其服務器上捆綁Linux，IBM和Dell也允諾為用戶提供 定制的Linux系統(tǒng)。</p><p>　?、贚otus宣布，Notes的下一版將

37、包括一個專用于Linux的版本。</p><p>　　③Corel公司將其著名的WordPerfect移植到Linux之上，并免費發(fā)行。Corel還計劃將其它的 圖形圖像處理產(chǎn)品完整地移到Linux平臺上。</p><p>　?、苤饕臄?shù)據(jù)庫廠家：Sybase、Informix、Oracle、CA、IBM都已經(jīng)將自己的數(shù)據(jù)庫產(chǎn)品移 植到Linux上，或完成了Beta版本，其中Oracl

38、e和Informix還對他們的產(chǎn)品提供技術(shù)支持。</p><p>　　4. Linux對中國軟件業(yè)的啟示</p><p>　　可喜的是，已經(jīng)有一些有遠見的國內(nèi)公司開始力圖改變這種現(xiàn)狀。不久前四通公司宣布將投 入巨資，以Linux為平臺開發(fā)一套Internet/Intranet解決方案，并以此為核心開展四通系統(tǒng) 集成業(yè)務，同時計劃建立全國性的Linux技術(shù)支持組織，帶頭推動自由軟件在中國的

39、應用和 發(fā)展。此外，華勝等國內(nèi)計算機公司也在致力于Linux相關(guān)軟、硬件系統(tǒng)的應用推廣。相信 隨著國內(nèi)各企業(yè)對Linux認識的加深，必將有越來越多的企業(yè)加入Linux應用的行列，更多的 軟件會植根于Linux平臺。</p><p>　　同時，國內(nèi)的高校應該以Linux為藍本更新原有的Unix教學內(nèi)容，從分析源代碼和修改內(nèi)核 入手培養(yǎng)大量的高級Linux人才，完善我國自己的操作系統(tǒng)。只有真正掌握了操作系統(tǒng)，我 國
