Is FreeBSD so insecure that it must be patched every few days? I hardly ever see FreeBSD security issues on Bugtraq, and the ones I see often have nothing to do with Net attacks. A properly configured FreeBSD server with no local logins should be quite secure. The only problem I've ever had resulted from a bug in Apache, and Apache obviously isn't part of FreeBSD. -- Anthony
