I chose Freebsd because it is free, but then how do you download the complete OS? I am thinking of my internet connection at work to download, but then how to download and save using ftp. Do I download one file or directory at a time or can I download all the file and dir at one time? How do you find out that my work internet connection has a firewall that blocks the ftp download? Thank you very much for your help. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make international calls for as low as $.04/minute with Yahoo!
