As a result of the number of such queries that come across the -questions list, I think this merits an FAQ: What are the differences between FreeBSD and other free UNIXs, especially Linux? I have a page with various answers to this basic question polled over time from the various lists. The URL is: http://keystone.westminster.edu/~fullermd/bsdvlin.htm Perhaps a small blurb under the What is FreeBSD question concerning differences, with a link to the above page? Or perhaps even a seperate FAQ. I make no guaruntees about the accuracy of the information posted on this page; I just picked the answers that were more discussions of the difference, rather that 'we're better because they suck' and related flames. Do with as you like. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* | FreeBSD; the way computers were meant to be | * "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is * | that I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet."| * fullermd@futuresouth.com :-} MAtthew Fuller * | http://keystone.westminster.edu/~fullermd | *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
