It's very nice, and surprisingly quick. I bought it to handle my web, dns and mail servers. So far, it seems I bought well. My background is in Redhat Linux and Windows, so please pardon the "dumb" question: How close are FreeBSD and OpenBSD? The reason I ask is to get a handle on how useful OpenBSD tips, FAQ's, etc. might be as I learn FreeBSD. Happy computing, D.B.
