Dear FreeBSD users and system administrators,
While the FreeBSD Security Team has traditionally been very good at
investigating and responding to security issues in FreeBSD, this only
solves half of the security problem: Unless users and administrators
of FreeBSD systems apply the security patches
ame rigamarole
of testing and such that a patch to a FBSD server would. Too many times
in the past, patches have broken application software.

I'd have to agree with most of Ted and Gayn's points. Also, it's hard
to answer many of the questions when they are different for different
servers. Unless there is a serious bug in something like SSH, then a
paying client with a seriously firewalled server and no malicious users
might get up
