I am a 3rd year computer science student and in the fall I am going to be taking courses in network and system programming (with pthread). As a lot of universities do, mine also teaches these courses on Linux. I was wondering if there was a lot of difference in socket and multi-threaded programming between Linux and FreeBSD? Thanks in advance, Michael
