I didn't know there were hidden issues! Again, here you go indicting yourself as someone without the requisite experience to administer a unix system, or any other computer system for that matter.

Actually, people not even as smart as you probably are have installed FreeBSD and successfully run ISPs with it. Microsoft will hold your hand, don't worry, girlie-man. Hans and Franz will take care of unix for you. In all seriousness, please tell your boss that you are NOT a unix system admin and if he'll fire your incompetent ass, he'll be able to afford a competent person. Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
