Hi!

I'd like to migrate my Linux powered server to FreeBSD 4.5 but there's
a critical syncache related bug that makes it easy to remotely cause
kernel panic on any server running FreeBSD 4.5. 
(more on this bug at www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/34658)

My questions:

1. Is there a simple way to fix this problem? (e.g. disabling syncache,
whatever)

2. Is it a good idea to run FreeBSD 4.5 on a server or should I consider
some older releases like 4.4 or 4.0?


thanks,
M.
