X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 10 Jul 2004 23:49:54 -0000 Bob, There is a freebsd isp list, for those of us who operate isps and use freebsd for some functional element, up to and including user shell accounts. Why would it (choice of boxen) matter to you? You may not even be aware if your isp is virtual or facilities-based, let alone the os directly observed end-user services are platformed by. If you can't find non-MS tech support, then you've made the wrong choice. Eric
