Hi, and thanks for the info. SATA and network are big ones since the primary drive will be SATA and the onboard ethernet is the one that will need to be used. I ordered the server and am having the datacenter put FreeBSD 6.1-R on it now. They also confirmed it should work based on their experiences. I'll post a follow-up when everything is all good. Thanks again. -Mark -- Internet Radio: Party107 (Trance/Electronic) - http://www.party107.com Rock 101.9 The Edge (Rock) - http://www.rock1019.net IRC: MIXXnet IRC Network - irc.mixxnet.net (Nick: MIXX941) GnuPG Public Key: http://www.mkproductions.org/mk_pubkey.asc _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
