The company I work for is running 2.1-STABLE systems, and we have
frontpage extensions on.  I don't think it matters what verison of
FreeeBSD you're using acvtually; just what version of the web server
(Apache, in our case) you are running.

Go with 2.2.1.
There have been some problems with 2.2, which is why 2.2.1 came out, but
anything before 2.1.6 had a fair-sized security hole, plus there are a lot
of features in 2.2.1 that would be nice on a system that's going to take
some load.

Hope it helps!!
