I'm looking at creating a machine for backing up/archiving other FreeBSD servers. One of the requirements will be burning DVDs (as some archives are 2-3g directories - difficult to break up) So the question I'm asking is: Is anyone actually using DVD burning under FreeBSD 5? If so, what make/model burner? Also, how compatible are the resultant DVDs? (i.e. can I toss one in a Windows XP machine DVD reader and browse the files?) Any problems or gotchas? Looking for success stories and real-world information. I know the release notes claim compatibiltiy, but I'm curious as to folks experiences. Also, I'm aware of the status of 5 as -CURRENT still, and I'm posting a second email asking for opinions on stability. Thanks in advance for any information. -Bill
