Re: Testimonial - Thanks to FreeBSD
Hi, Hi, starting on mainframe in the middle 80's, i met a dilemn in the later 90's : if you want a job, you must run on Microsoft. Well, i started a new learn of computing on this OS, un-learning all about i knew on computing, a very difficult task when you're coming from IBM... All my friends repeated to me : you should work on Unix like system, you should .. 2 month's ago, i would like to setup my own server, at home, with web, ftp and mail services. I want him robust, efficient, safe and so one. i dreamed to get an old 3090 for 500$ !, but there's no place at home for him :o) Thus, i have started to install my first FreeBSD (on a very special computer) ... 2 weeks later, without any knowledge about Unix like systems, my httpd, ftpd ran (very ?!) well. This mean that your system is well designed and documented. Monitoring access, it's incredible to see that BSD is faster by 2 to 3 than other tested system. and i discovered that computing is absolutely what i learned on IBM .. Great thanks to the community, and your effort to document FreeBSD, even in French (we are so bad with others languages ..!), i hope to help the FreeBSD users by writing some drivers and other things, Welcome to FreeBSD. It is a good community and a good system. Nothing is perfect, of course, but this community comes as close as it can and keeps on working. Enjoy, jerry K.

My testimonial to FreeBSD would be that three years ago I was asked to get a mailserver for 1,200 users setup quickly, using Qmail, with a web interface and virus scanning of each and every message. A few days later, I had FreeBSD+Qmail-ldap+Qmailscanner running - and it's still running. In three years, it's had two outages, both hardware related. You really can't beat that. Since then, I've used FreeBSD for fileservers, firewalls, printservers, webservers, database servers, and my desktop at home. I've played with Linux, but the BSD documentation is always more complete, FreeBSD systems seem to consistently take a kicking and come back for more. That, and lists such as this offer really great support. I love FreeBSD. :-) -- Herbert ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
