Which FreeBSD version is the most stable for this server? There was discussion about this when 4.0 was released and many people felt that 4.0 was the most stable x.0 release ever, and was just as stable, if not more stable, than the 3.x branch. My $0.02: 4.1 is definately ready for prime time, and I consider myself rather conservative (one who would use 3.x just for stability's sake.) Hats off to the commiters for keeping the -STABLE branch stable. :) -Paul. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
