I was pleased to see the ratings that freebsd received on this.

Subject: freebsd vs linux (nfs)

>from unix review's "performance computing" magazine, june 1998,
pages 21-28,

comparisons are on nt products vs various flavors of unix.

for simplicity's sake, linux, bsdi, and freebsd are only mentioned here
for comparison of bsd vs linux:

                 NFS PROTOCOL SUPPORT
                 --------------------
            nfs v.2       nfs v.3        webnfs
            udp    tcp    udp    tcp
bsdi        x      x      x      x
freebsd     x      x      x      x         x
linux       x


                          SUPPORT FOR ANCILLARY NFS PROTOCOLS
                          -----------------------------------
           RPC PORTMAPPER    MOUNT PROTOCOL      NETWORK LOCK MGR       STATUS
         Over UDP Over TCP  Over UDP Over TCP  Over UDP    Over TCP     UDP TCP
         v2 v3 v4 v2 v3 v4  v1 v2 v3 v1 v2 v3  v1 v2 v3 v4 v1 v2 v3 v4  v1  v1
bsdi     x        x         x     x  x     x
freebsd  x        x         x     x  x     x   x     x     x     x      x
linux    x        x         x        x

again, i like both freebsd and linux, i'm slightly biased towards freebsd,
just because of its superior networking and security over linux.

thanx,
