If you have a cable connection (something I suspect as you're going to run a web server) every tool needed is in the FreeBSD system itself. Just install FreeBSD, then... # cd /usr/ports/www/your favourite apache distribution # make # make install This retrieves the sources and dependencies, compiles it and installs the web server. Take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html for even more easily installed applications/servers. If you on the other hand do not have a cable connection I'm not sure of what's on those CD's. :-) Best regards, Paul To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
