Personally, I would never consider a vendor that does not at least have
a cursory knowledge of the platform I was using on a leased server. If
they are miles away, I want someone with a clue to be my eyes an ears in
the event of an emergency.
I'd recommend going with a host who supports FreeBSD.

Hello folks,
I'm interested in a dedicated server plan from a somewhat big company
called
Amenworld (www.amenworld.com) but the sales technician is telling me that
amen technicians can't install freebsd on the machines. After some
googling
I found that they are hosting some freebsd machines (if this counts for
anything).
Is there anyone here that by any change is a client on this company
and runs
freebsd?
Thanks in advance
Regards

Alexandre,
I know nothing about this company.. but just because a few boxes have
FreeBSD doesn't mean they necessarily support it. It's possible to
change from linux to FreeBSD on remote machine using utilities like:

Hope that helps,
Jeff
P.S. Be warned, that utility re-images the disk, and can leave the
machine in non-bootable state. Possibly forcing you to incur support
fees from the ISP/Datacenter.
