I suggested a magazine cover disk offering about a year ago. The Disk 1 from the current 4-disk set is now even more suitable than it was a year ago. (It has almost all the apps you need for a useful server - at least all the ones I use for my production servers.) Like you, I'm an administrator - I use FreeBSD on some of my servers in work (I run the PC Network for a charity, and I have a mix of NT and FreeBSD servers. I don't do any NT advocacy :-) I think the problem is as much one of finding a magazine prepared to cary FreeBSD as anything else - the only magazines I have seen seem firmly limited to Linux if they bother mentioning a non Microsoft product at all. I have got to the point where I have stopped buying the paper magazines unless they have a particularly good cover disk - the contents of all the ones on sale in Ireland are no more than extended advertisments. <>< ============================================================ ><> Michael Doyle email: relyod@co-operation-ireland.ie Network Administrator personal email: relyod@indigo.ie Co-operation Ireland http://www.co-operation-ireland.ie/ Phone: +353-1-661 0588 Fax: +353-1-661 8456 ********************************************************************* To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
