Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm very new to FreeBSD (I got it because I am setting up a web server), but I have some experience with Linux. I have heard that FreeBSD is a better platform for running a web server then Linux. This is why I got it. Honestly, is this true? I am more familliar with Linux so I would set the web server up under it. I know Linux would have no problem handling it at first, but I want to allow for future growth without having to change OS's later. I have nothing against FreeBSD. I am just familliar with Linux and not FreeBSD. Do you think there would be a real benifit in learning FreeBSD? Or should I just go with what I know? Is it true that FreeBSD will be a lot better for running the web server? Thanks, Mike.
