Short Answer: no Longer Answer : imo the FreeBSD 5.x branch isn't ready for production servers as of yet, there is still a lot of bugs that needs to be sorted out and fixed. You may want to read this URL, that has some explanation to what I mean : http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.0R/early-adopter.html That said, theres some exciting features in FreeBSD 5.0 that I'm really looking forward to, and I might set up one of the servers that customers doesn't have direct access to and isn't mission critical with FreeBSD 5.0 to help out in testing, but until the 5-STABLE branch is release I'm not going to adopt my server park into RELENG_5.
