Shawn, if you are putting together a FreeBSD based news server take a
look at the archives, in -hackers mailing list, for
`Joe Greco news server' He has done a fair amount of work, in the last
couple of years, coming up with a good setup for a system so it's a
must read for you. Some of the hilites are using as many SCSI adapters
as the motherboard will acomodate instead of the UW. Also, using
smaller hard disks around 2Gig (no bigger than 4Gig). There is also
file system hints and many many more useful ideas he himself used and
to gain maximum performance out of.
