I would appreciate it if you could get back to me =) Anything that's not available on the CD is available through download (via FTP packages, or ports if no package has yet been compiled) Please read the Early Adopter's Guide before installing 5.0. If you're not familiar with FreeBSD, or if you're building a production server you DO NOT want to use 5.0, use 4.7 instead. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

Just install FreeBSD, then... # cd /usr/ports/www/your favourite apache distribution # make # make install This retrieves the sources and dependencies, compiles it and installs the web server. Take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html for even more easily installed applications/servers. If you on the other hand do not have a cable connection I'm not sure of what's on those CD's. :-) Best regards, Paul To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
