This one is rather out of date (will be fixed shortly).
Up-to-date versions are now available:
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.ascii USASCII version
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.latin1 ISO8859-1 version
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.latex LaTeX (currently broken)
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.ps Postscript
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook-html.tar.gz All the HTML files
The ascii/latin1 versions have underlining and bold. If this causes
problems for people, I can make stripped versions available as well.
Note that in the ascii, latin1 and postscript versions, the table of
contents is at the *end* of the document. I will also be making
postscript versions formatted for a4 paper in the future.
These files are updated daily.
The files on the ftp server used to be updated automagically, but
that has apparently broken down.
