If you are new to FreeBSD and other UNIX-like systems, you should not begin= with starting a business! Learn something about the OS first. Install FreeBSD om your computer and experiment with it. Subscribe to the freebsd-questions mailing list and read through the archives of that mailing list. Install and configure typical server programs; apache, bind, postfix, mysql. Learn about jail(8). Do read the handbook, because it does contain a lot of useful information. > I've been searching all say and cannot find ANY online schools that teach > FreeBSD. =20 Personally, I learned first Linux and then FreeBSD by just installing and using them. I think a lot of people start that way. You can download the book "The Complete FreeBSD" from http://www.lemis.com/grog/Documentation/CFBSD/ > But I need to know the ground up.
