Hi,

We are currently looking at FreeBSD 2.2.2 for our Gaming Network
based on over 12000 gaming machines.

We are looking at moving from a DOS based polling solution to
a FreeBSD platform.

The proposed network infrastructure will be a mixture of Fast Ethernet
and ATM where Fast Ethernet is to these Polling P.Cs from an ATM
Switch and the rest of the network is ATM based.

I'd like to know if ATM is supported within FreeBSD and to what level as
we'd like to run ATM directly to these P.C's @ 155Mbps.

Is FreeBSD 2.2.2 Year 2000 compliant?

Please confirm.

I look forward to your reply.

Regards,

Merv Young
