Currently I´m investigating improvements to the way we use the Internet. Part of this project will involve setting up various servers (SNMP, HTTP, FTP, etc.) and am intrested in evaluating the varous low cost flavours of UNIX. The two most popular seem to be FreeBSD and various distributions of LINUX. Concerning FreeBSD, many commercial packages state that they will run on BSD (as well as a variety of other flavours of UNIX). Does this also mean that they will run on FreeBSD? I´m a little confused about the differences between FreeBSD and 'full' BSD. As you might guess with trying to set up an HTTP server I´m looking into publishing on the web and am not certain whether to use a product called Apache which seems popular (and is free) or buy Netscape servers which is one of the reasons why I´m trying to find out more about FreeBSD and the differences from the full commercial version of BSD. Any help and enlightenment would be greatly appreciated.
