Rgds, ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" juniper routers do exactly this (freebsd for network routing protocols, asics for hardware forwarding). Not sure how they compare to Ci$co (I'm assuming cost is driving factor for evaluating freebsd as a routing platform). freebsd can do bgp/ospf/etc with software such as: quagga or zebra, or the newer xorp. some people have used freebsd as a routing platform for large networks, see occaid.org (their network was built with freebsd/quagga and ip-ip tunnels, although they did have some juniper m5s) what you will probably find is that routing in software may not offer the performance required for a backbone network. This is of course dependent on your needs, and some people (occaid) have achieved line-rate (small packets) ip forwarding with intel pro 1000 cards and some patches to enable fastforwarding for ipv6 in freebsd. hope this is of some help. I can't give any numbers with regard to stability -- quagga/zebra did have some issues as I recall. for large amounts of traffic it may help to enable device driver polling to reduce interrupt overhead. --Aaron ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: Counter-Strike, Wine and FreeBSD
quick question, I'm guessing you used wine in ports? I never seemed to be able to get the fonts to work properly with Counter-Strike 1.5. Can you post your wine config file? The alternative was/is cedega, but I felt more inclined to boot windows than pay even more money to get a game to work (my .02) Props to ID and epic for supporting alternative platforms. UT* and Quake/Doom series work very well as I understand it (I played UT2004 and QuakeIII on FreeBSD with great success) --Aaron Andrew P. wrote: > Hello! > > I'm sorry to bother you all guys, but this issue has really become a > crusade for me :) > > I'm trying to play Counter-Strike 1.5 on FreeBSD - over network > > The easy part was to install wine, closed-source nvidia drivers, > launch CS1.5 - and even play on the local listen server with some > bots.
