We just bought 3 new Unix boxes (Pentium 300's with 3 9gig SCSI hard drives). The units will be replacing 3 old Pentium 100 boxes that run Freebsd 2.1.7.1 and Red Hat Linux. The boxes will be doing light news, mail, firewall, shell, DNS, www, and ftp. My experience with installing from a boot floppy (2.2.6) on a couple of machines at home went well, however I'm wondering if its possible for some people to give ideas about how to install on a "PRODUCTION ENVIROMENT" where there are security concerns as well as other issues. Also in the newsgroup people refer to a one or more machines as sort of a code base machine that is used to test pre production code as well. Is this generally the practice of a Freebsd Sys-Admin. Any other help or comments would be greatly appreciated. JOHN To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
