I tried both operationsystem, Linux with Kernel 1.3.25 and FreeBSD 2.05 Can someone help me, wich system will be the best to act as a www, ftp and mail-Server, there arn't many users on the machine. FreeBSD seems to have a better Ethernet-I/O-Performance, but Linux has a better support for PCI and for me it has a better directory and password-structure - more common to other operation-systems. Anybody of you have experiences with both systems and can help me? Please answer by mail to tschach@www.fu-berlin.de Thanks, Carsten -- -------------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Carsten Tschach | Freie Universitaet Berlin tschach@zedat.fu-berlin.de | Zentraleinrichtung fuer Datenverarbeitung tschach@www.fu-berlin.de | WWW-Admin of http://www.fu-berlin.de/
