hiya all;
  am new at un*x but so far is really cool; I have decided to start 
playing with it more often than just playing in the inet; so a crazy 
idea came to me....
  I wanna setup a small box, running FreeBSD ;), so friends can 
telnet in to get their email, and ftp also.
  Since I dont have lots of $$$ am gonna be using a 28.8k link to a 
provider, just one thing.....
  Where do i start!!!????
  I got the pc already and the cdrom from \/\/alnut Creek but still 
got a lot to learn... 
  Am reading lots of books but they are all generic, nothing specific 
to FreeBSD... :( ...
 anyhow I was wondering if a more experienced user and sysadmin could 
help me out here with lots of info and FAQ, also with copy of kernel 
configs :)... if possible...
  heres the pc i got for my purposes,
  
  cpu:  386dx33
  ram:  8mb more to be added if needed
  hd:   1. 250mb ide samsung
        1. 20mb old mfm/rll :)
        1. 345mb ide maxtor
  fd:   1.44mb 
  video:VGA
  cntrl: ide ;)
  modem: 28.8k prac peripherals
    dedicated phone line also.....
  and an ext cdrom...scsi
  or int ide... AZTECH cdrom 2x
  
  hey sounds crapy but anyhow thats all i got....
  can anyone help me out here let me know ;)
  
  the use will be email,ftp with telnet in for those who have email 
in the pc...

 hmmm.... dunno what else to say pls. recommend and help me out 
here...

l8r
