Mike, I too was more familiar with linux, and I like FreeBSD much better, it feels like home.. There really isn't a choice between distributions.. the people are much much more friendly and helpful. Give it a shot... Some really big sites run FreeBSD, Yahoo, Hotmail... (you can find more at www.freebsd.org).. Plus you can update your entire machine with one command.. make world... (IT's the best!)

I'm very new to FreeBSD (I got it because I am setting up a web server), but I have some experience with Linux. I have heard that FreeBSD is a better platform for running a web server then Linux. This is why I got it. Honestly, is this true? I am more familliar with Linux so I would set the web server up under it. I know Linux would have no problem handling it at first, but I want to allow for future growth without having to change OS's later. I have nothing against FreeBSD. I am just familliar with Linux and not FreeBSD. Do you think there would be a real benifit in learning FreeBSD? Or should I just go with what I know? Is it true that FreeBSD will be a lot better for running the web server? Thanks, Mike.
