5 days is about right for the first time. I have set up 
FreeBSD 2.2.5 as a web server for a lan, with
DNS, and proxy services for a high school.

I have an engineering background and,
before embarking on the project, used
to speak a bit of unix some ten years ago.

The second time is more like a few days,
in my experience.

Yes it will take time. If you expect it to be
time consuming, and expect lots of
frustrations the battle is half over.

A very steep learning curve - more
like rock climbing than walking up
a hill. But the view at the top is worth
it.

FreeBSD is not, however, for the non-
technical user IMHO.

Cheers
Eddie.
