Too insecure??

Uhh...  <confused look on face>

What's their alternative?  Linux easily tops FreeBSD on *nix advisories,
anything MS-based blows their theory out the door.  About the only stuff
better would be perhaps NetBSD, and for sure OpenBSD.

That's either a line of BS, or they hired some linux-only admin who is
afraid of anything BSD and just wants to get rid of it.  At least IMHO.
Security is not a major problem on FreeBSD however, at least for an admin
with half a brain.
