      Really?

      I find it useful as a file server.

      Course, you need a special driver for Linux to access the pdofile service.

          I just say it as P-DOS.

          I’m guessing somehow you’re pronouncing it as paedo.

            that’s how it’s pronounced, and is apparent probably to those familiar with DOS, although to be fair I have recently thought of the alternative pronunciation suggested by the OP of this comment chain
