I've recently become interested in bsd because it is the foundation of the upcoming MacOS X and wanted to ask the member of this list if they thought there were substantial differences between the various bsd's from an administration point of view. For example, I'm having difficulty with a netBSD install on an older mac I have. Is netBSD all that different from freeBSD? I really don't have any perspective yet and hoped someone on this list could shed some light for me ;-) Jim k To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
