Not Web servers, mail or things like that (I know FreeBSD is very good for that) but for example, can it be used for l2tp termination, per user bandwidth control, network load-balancing or that kind of very network oriented stuff, in an ISP environment and how does it scale compared with other solutions. Thanks, Laurent __________________________________________________________________ Découvrez le nouveau Yahoo! Mail : 250 Mo d'espace de stockage pour vos mails ! Créez votre Yahoo!
