I looked here:
http://www.clearfoundation.com/Software/overview.html
and it begins
"ClearOS Community is a cloud-connected Server..."
but I don't know what that means.

I was reading, trying to understand what ClearOS is -- I thought it was a replacement for ClarkConnect -- when a fellow named Toby slid in from the right in a chat window. He told me that ClearOS is a cloud-based application server. Is that right?

Also, is there a better place to post these sorts of questions?

Thank You.

    Thank you for your kind help, Nick, and Happy New Year.

    And thanks for the background. I don't know why 'www.clarkconnect.com/legacy/index.php' stalls out, but I suspect it's because it's wedded to Google and Google's spyware and won't even load if Google is blocked. The Internet is going dark for me because of Google.

    ClearOS is the successor to Clarkconnect (iirc ClarKConnect 5.0 became ClearOS 5.1 when it was upgraded a few years ago). It directly replaces ClarkConnect with some differences and many enhancements. There are some cloud features, especially, I believe, in the paid for version which I think integrates with google apps. Also there are no limitations to the number of mail users.

    If you are looking for a replacement for ClarkConnect then here is your place.

    When I go here:
    'http://www.clarkconnect.com/'
    and I see this:
    "Existing Customers and Users"
    and then click the
    "Information for existing users"
    link, my Firefox browser takes me here:
    'http://www.clarkconnect.com/legacy/index.php'
    and does 6 GETS:
    'index.php'
    'style.css'
    'top-transition.png'
    'icon_search.png'
    'top-left.png'
    'top-right.png'
    then completely stalls out. So, I don't get to see anything having to do with the transition from ClarkConnect to ClearOS.
