FreeBSD Appliance Questions
I am working on an NAS appliance built on FreeSBD. Several questions: - The vendor has rebranded everything so uname isn't helping me determine what exact branch of FreeBSD they used. Is there another canonical way to figure this out? - For any reasonably recent version of FBSD, is it likely that the Linux emulation will work correctly or are there certain versions of FreeBSD that do this better than others?

Re: FreeBSD Appliance Questions
Hi. Have some experience with isilon NL and ssd iseries. Onefs 6.5 . Dont go mucking around like you are on a normal bsd system. It doesnt work that way. They have a system which is similar to cfengine which overwrites changes so you need to do things their way not the bsd way. Their support is crap since emc purchase. Threw some avere cacheing in front of our silos but still no plans on upgrading..
