I am not sure if someone would be interested in reading this, but anyway, here is the story of me and FreeBSD. Two years ago I heard about Unix, Linux and other stuff. And I really got interested in it. So I tried to install couple of Linux Distribution. But none of them worked out for me. I tried different distributions, but hey I was not able to install it properly. I ran into problems with Hardware and some other stuff. But in March of 2000 I have heard about FreeBSD, It changed my whole life. I Bought FreeBSD 3.4 CD set, and hey From very first installation of FreeBSD I succeeded. Two months later I learned how to compile kernel properly and other stuff. I got ADSL in May, ran into configuration problems, but here we go again, people from mailing lists of FreeBSD community were not aggressive and very helpful to me so I was able configure everything I wanted. Now I am running my FreeBSD as a Gateway, and 4 computers are connected to it, sharing my ADSL connection. And as always continuing learning FreeBSD. :) I just want to say Thanks to whole friendly FreeBSD community. As far as you guys alive FreeBSD will be alive, and will move on ! Andrei Zaitsau.
