Hi Derek,

I met the folks from ixSystems and the PC-BSD project at BSDCan earlier
this year, and I learned that ixSystems had just launched a FreeBSD
support service:
http://www.ixsystems.com/news/ixsystems-announces-professional-freebsd-and-pc-bsd-support-offering.html

I've cc'd Matt Olander, CTO of ixSystems, on this message, and I'm sure
he can help you out with your support requirements.

Best regards,
Greg

I have checked the links on the FreeBSD.org website but have not gotten 
much response from firms on that list, which seems to be out of date.


So if you know of a firm that offers support and consulting on FreeBSD 
in the continental US, please post back.


Thanks.

Aloha Derek,

Thats a "funny" request for FreeBSD. I have used it for years and 
outside of hardware issues (which were non FreeBSD issues) it just works.


I was unfortunately involved with the install of a M$ system recently 
doing "network cable" trouble shooting for the company. The problems 
they had were all Microsoft running Msql data base and it took 4 weeks 
and 2 outside support companies to resolve these issues.


If they have previously used M$ and a data base I could see why they 
would expect that outside support would be necessary.


You may find some independent sysadmins on this list who could help you 
with any issues you may have.


Having seen your answers on this list I would think you could handle 
most situations you may encounter.


I wish you success.

Who is anyone using for consulting or support?

2008-09-18 Thread Derek Ragona
I am working with a firm here in the Chicago area and they are interested 
in using FreeBSD, but would like to know of other outside support resources.


I have checked the links on the FreeBSD.org website but have not gotten 
much response from firms on that list, which seems to be out of date.


So if you know of a firm that offers support and consulting on FreeBSD in 
the continental US, please post back.


Thanks.
