It also has many database applications available for installation. FreeBSD is often used to run databases because it is very fast, arguably the fastest operating system freely available. Many large web sites and datacenters use FreeBSD as their operating system. If you want to run FreeBSD then I suggest you get another computer, it doesnt have to be an expensive one, a cheap second hand computer will do to start with, and then install FreeBSD on to it. All the installation instructions, and much more information can be found on the FreeBSD website, http://www.freebsd.org/ in particular go to the 'Documentation' and then read the 'Handbook' http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ It is very important that you read all this information first. After you have done this, if you have more questions then the best place to ask is on the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list. This database list is really for questions about specific database applications. Kind Regards, Tim. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

That's right, but Oracle is not the only option if you need a good database. For example, PostgreSQL (in its latest version) is quite a good competition. (And don't start talking about support: There are a lot of companies offering support for PostgreSQL and other free databases.) > You cann't hire support contract for FreeBSD, Well, I don't know if _you_ can ... ;-) But there are companies offering support contracts for FreeBSD. For example the company I'm working for (secnetix, see my signature below).

We have large (and I mean large) customers from the banking business who use FreeBSD, among other things.

Well, Solaris 10 isn't bad, and for certain type of apps it's certainly an excellent solution. We don't recommend FreeBSD for _everything_, in fact (sometimes you have a massive box like an E10k/E15k a.k.a. StarFire/StarCat, and you can't run FreeBSD on such a machine). But FreeBSD machines and clusters thereof are preferable for quite a large number of uses. Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co.
