This channel has been very helpful to me many of a time. Sure they will not hold your hand but thats not what I want. I either want an answer or point me in the right direction.
I am one new FreeBSD user. After installing 3.2 I found that the file structure made more sense. Also I really enjoy the freebsd website when searching for an answer it is very well laid out and helpful, and I really like/usr/ports.
I will prob still run some type of Linux from time to time to check up on the progress but for my small cable modem firewall/gateway I will run *.BSD.
The problem with FreeBSD is that if youre trying to install X brand hardware and you have searched the HOWTO, FAW, and BSDhandbook and cannot find any information then ask in #freebsd on efnet (0r any irc network for that matter) you will get the RTFM answer every time. Example...... last year I was trying to get my ess1370 soundcard working in FreeBSD. When asking for advice in #freebsd I was told by many in the room that they had theirs working no problem with a hack. Asking how they did this I got the huge brush off. ALL I WANTED WAS A WEBPAGE, HOWTO, etc. I had searched google.com hotbot etc and didnt find anything.
I still use FreeBSD as a NATd box for my cable modem. And yes I figured out how they installed their 1370 sound card. After I subscribed to several FreeBSD mailing lists.
It was bad CGI scripting. And you must keep this in mind. Any OS that lets users login or runs a service can be "hacked" it has nothing to do with the OS but the System admin.

NT is slowly fading into irrelevane. Good to see Compaq pull out in time.
No *.BSDcon for Kansas I bet.
