I use FreeBSD for a production web server. We were dissatisfied with what we could get from various web hosts, and decided to do it ourselves with a colocated server. Right now we use ISP services for SSL, DNS and mail, but I'll have that on our server soon. The few hours down time in the last five months has either been elective, or loss of power or connectivity due to our service provider. I also use an old machine at home running PPP as an internet gateway for a tiny network. Dan Langille wrote: > > This may sound like a sarcastic question, but I assure it is not.
