I am currently 16 and don't know much about FreeBSD but I The primary means of support for FreeBSD is the freebsd-questions mailing list, accessed in a similar manner to however you accessed this list. You will also find a great deal of Linux/UNIX information directly applicable to FreeBSD, and more applicable with little translations for platform differences, etc. There is a lot of consistency between UNIX variants; shell scripting questions would probably be on topic on most generic UNIX forums, and questions about rc.conf (FreeBSD's "main" configuration file in the /etc directory) might be mildly off-topic or better addressed to a more specifically FreeBSD-oriented forum. http://www.google.com/bsd has a lot of answers. If you're new, it'd be helpful to read the FreeBSD handbook. It'll answer questions you didn't even realize you had yet. It's linked off of http://www.freebsd.org. FreeBSD is one of the better-documented open-source operating systems around. -- Adam Fabian (afabian@austin.rr.com)
