Are you trying to make your infosec guy look like an idiot? Does he realize that FreeBSD has a grand total of 16 security problems for all of 2009? Hell, Microsoft has that many in an average month. If he can find something (other than OpenBSD) with a better record than that, I'd love to hear about it. -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com http://people.collaborativefusion.com/~wmoran/ _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
