I've not used FreeBSD but two data points.
A guy in the building where I live runs an online business that gets lots of
hack attacks and he long ago switched to FreeBSD for his servers because in his
experience it is way more secure than any of the Linux distros.
Secondly, a friend of mine
Kee,
The three big BSDs (FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD) are all great. In 1999, I
worked with NetBSD servers, this year, I went on to build myself a FreeBSD
server and my knowledge from 1999 was instantly transferable. Things are
where they should be. It is very easy to configure and secure a
My take on FreeBSD was that it was a very promising non-mainstream OS but never
caught on large scale. There was talk, if I am remembering right, about Sun
suing anyone who made anything that looked like Unix for a while there. I think
that scared a lot of people off. I'm glad it still lives.
Folks,
For anyone following this, I was unable to connect with MySQL or SQLite
database using linux compatibility in FreeBSD. I believe that RevDB External
and the Database Drivers need some uninstalled shared libraries but since
they are no in ELF Format, I can't use ldd to find out whos
Thanks Pierre,
I don't know about security daemons on FreeBSD. I know that the system is
very secure when configured correctly and very stable.
Can you or somebody try to access http://bsd.soapdog.org and tell me if it
opens? I am having problems here with my ISP, it appears that people from

'Evening Andre,
Yep. It works there too in displaying the Welcome to revIgniter! message.

Did you have an eye on SELinux, the security demon witch
CentOS 5.6 works perfectly fine in about revserver+postgresql web driven
apps :-)
On the other hand, i could't run such revserver+postgresql web driven apps
under OpenSuse 11.3 + PG 8.4.7 nor OpenSuse 11.4 + PG 9.0.3 for yet. Did you
went more successfully than me on this ?
Pierre,

Thanks for those precisions, Andre ! Seems i will not resist to test how BSD
handle revserver+PG yet... Your fault ;-)

RevServer works OK under OpenSuse. It's the revdb.so and/or revPG.so whose

I think I got it running on OpenSuse 11.0 or something like that but if I
rememeber correctly it involved installing some libraries by hand.

give me a couple days, I will install pg here and try it out... I have mysql
installed but so far no testing done because I can't believe it will
actually work and am afraid that my beliefs will again be shattered (I
thought that linux compat would never work)

Folks,
Just to tell people here that RevServer runs on FreeBSD 8.1 with the Linux
Binary Compatibility ports installed. It takes a while to install all the
needed Linux version of the libraries but it works.

Congratulations Andre ;D
Does FreeBSD run an SELinux (RedHat) or AppArmor(Suse) kind of security demon.
Kind regards,
Pierre
