Unfortunately few commercial apps are supported on FreeBSD, if that is a concern (and it is for me). If you want Linux that's solid and stable, look at CentOS which is a recompiled redhat. It is solid and supported for years. I haven't found anything that works on redhat that doesn't work on CentOS. When a vendor asks my platform sometimes I. Just tell 'me redhat since it saves confusion. I now have Redhat licenses available to use, but CentOS is so solid I haven't bothered switching. -j _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
