Hi,

Trying to wean myself from the M$ world so I've decided to take the
FreeBSD plunge :-) I have what must be the stupidest question ever asked
but I'm confused by the different release schemes. I know from RTFM'ing
that I should not use the current tree, but for a production
environment, should I be using 3.4 or 4.0. I downloaded 4.0-RELEASE and
have been installing packages from the FreeBSD-stable directory on the
FTP sites. Am I doing the correct thing?

I'm asking because on some webhosting sites, they seem to all be using
3.4 and not 4 and I was wondering if I following the correct paths.

WOW does MySQL rock on FreeBSD compared to NT :-)

Thanks,

The year before I was born we walked on the moon,
now 31 years later it is considered a modern feat of
science to grow tomatos in low earth orbit.
