This is my first message to the list. I'm currently running debian GNU/Linux on a firewall/masquerading/mail server at work and on my home PCs, but I'd readed very good comments about FreeBSD on some lists I'm subscribed to, so I decide to post some questions about features I'm interested in here. What is the last release kernel version of FreeBSD? Is possible to compile it? Is the source code available? How about hardware support? Are there drivers for PCMCIA cards and winmodems? I'm interested in install it on a notebook. Are there a kernel feature like ipchains/iptable? thanks and sorry for my english. PS: if is it the wrong place to post this kind of questions, sorry. Who can answer them? ~edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
