There is a relatively steep learning curve at first, but you can do ANYTHING in Unix! After I got up and running, I've replaced several MS Windows systems with FreeBSD. I also use a FreeBSD as a primary domain controller. Open Source rocks! -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Benjamin Smith Sent: Friday, January 24, 2003 12:23 AM To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Subject: Heya. I'm definitely a newbt. It took me two (full) days to get FreeBSD running over FTP and I almost took the Good Lord's name in vain regarding your OS. However, it works now, somewhat, and I'm appreciative, seeing the hefty sack of potential in the tidy package. I'm a Unix virgin too, and my fingers are short and stubby, but I do have one skill. If you ever need any contributions in Flash, that's my game. Splash, nav, what have you. If you have something you need shinied up I'd be glad to donate an idle hour or ten. Now back to the hair-pulling. Thanks much, again. bnjmnb __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
