Of course, you can't stop someone from downloading FreeBSD themselves for free (or for the cost of bandwidth, anyway), so in effect, people charge a reasonable amount for putting together a nice CD/jewel case because that's what the market is willing to pay for -- -Chuck ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Please see http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/introduction.html As I understand it, you are free to redistribute it provided that you do not claim to have produced it nor charge for it. You can charge for producing the CDs though. You can obtain the iso images to produce the CDs from the FreeBSD site.
