There is nothing I can do to help. If you would like to suggest that FreeBSD be a supported platform go to http://www.microsoft.com/mswish". I've done so, and I wonder if it would have any impact if we could get everyone on this list to request it. Probably not, I suppose, but it certainly can't hurt. They already support BSDI, so the software actually runs fine under FreeBSD, they just won't support it. I see no reason why BSDI and Linux should be supported, and not FreeBSD. Joe Mays
