I haven't tried the linux version and I don't know of a freebsd version. However, aolserver is highly threaded. Given Freebsd's rather limited support for threads, I think you would get poor performance, if it worked at all. The preferred platform for aolserver is Digital Unix, where it really screams. I happen to have this configuration setting on a box next to my desk, and really love it. I hear that FreeBSD 3.0 is going to have thread support. It would probably be worth a look at that point.
