Hello Sultan:

I have with FreeBSD about 1 year and I have config and run many services 
such as NAT/Router/Firewall/Ipfilter, Mailserver, DNS server, DHCP Server, 
Cache proxy server. But soon, I will have to handle VPN Project from 
Cambodia to Singapore which got existing Cisco infrastructure. I think my 
customer will not choose FreeBSD for thier VPN Tunnel.

But anyway, I want to know see whether some Internet Backbone or ISP used 
FreeBSD as thier Internet facilities as us or not.

I hope we can be a good friend in FreeBSD. but I just start into it around 1 
year.

Rgds,

Richard Ben, CIO
