This probably makes quite a change for the Linux crowd, as for quite a while we've been running their stuff under FreeBSD, and not had them able to do it visa-versa :-) - even now they get a 50% performance loss, rather than are usual-performance gain we/I've seen the other way around... <G> If your looking at VMWare remember to drop them a quick Email to inquire about FreeBSD support as the 'host' platform... Every little helps... :) -Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
