Strange, the exact same question (word for word) was asked on a Gentoo
forum like 2 days ago... about using Gentoo in Iran.
It looks like Tima hasn't figure out what OS to install yet :)

It may, due to the Crypto libraries.

There are a few other possibilities. OpenBSD is based in Canada, Mandrake
Linux is based in France.

I thought this type of problem (if it exists for some crypto parts of
FreeBSD) can be circumvented by downloading from a European mirror.

Using FreeBSD in IRAN

2003-01-14 Thread Tima Farzaliyev
Hello

Could you please advise - is it legal to use FreeBSD
in IRAN ?
The reason I ask this is - we cannot use certain
software including RedHat in IRAN due to US exporting
restrictions. Does this apply to FreeBSD as well ?

Thank you
Tima
