I would like to know the differences between FreeBSD 4.7, 5.X and 6.1. My company is using BSD 4.7 currently and I would like it to change to 5 or 6. What technical difficulties might I face or how much code would be needed to re-written. I do understand that these are too broad questions but any sort of input would be helpful at this stage. Please email me back to mihir.sanghavi@gmail.com. Thanking everyone in advance. Regards, Mihir
