What it is, is best described at www.netbsd.org Basically it is another Unix, just as Linux is another Unix. The general comments I have read are that OpenBSD is the most secure, NetBSD is the most portable and FreeBSD is the best performer. If you feel tempted to ask which is best I will tell you upfront the only valid answer: Install them both, compare them and reach your own conclusions. --------------------- francisco@natserv.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
