Hi Troy, Been fairly uneventful here, one machine had a problem with the BIOS date (thinks it's 1994 or 2094 but doesn't seem to want to retain 2000), but this is easily fixed with an ntpdate sync in rc.local (ideally it should probably happen earlier which I'll look into...) There are no FreeBSD problems that I'm aware of, and the only oddities I noticed in the city were that the street lights went out at midnight - most likely because of the fireworks - and there were a few sirens and ambulances floating around - most likely because of the large numbers of people in the city, same as any new year. I'm located in Melbourne, Australia.
