Of course, this kind of server is too able to be hacked, so the system: (The company is beginning, so 100% client satisfaction is highly desirable) 1) once seted up, never reboot it! 2) very fast service, i have to build a fine kernel, compile all necessary softwares including only necessary options! 3) if the system is hacked i will be probably fired 4) No data can be lost. There is some other points, but for now, it's necessary! I began with FreeBSD 2.2.7-Release, i bought the Great Book The Complete FreeBSD, i have a good (not enough) amount of knownledge about seting up FreeBSD machines. But now i have a great opportunity, and i don't wanna perform a bad job! My doubt is: 1 - Which FreeBSD version should i use? 2.2.8-Stable, 3.1-Stable or 3.2-Stable ? 2 - Is there any URL that points me all security bug i have to fixed on the choose version? 3 - Am i going towards right direction choosing FreeBSD ? 4 - I have the book The complete FreeBSD (i bought it with 2.2.7) is it good to buy a updated version, if you suggest me 3.x FreeBSD version! 5 - Be as sincerely as possible, i would like to perform excelent! Thank you for your time and cooperation! PS: i am sorry if the questions is stupid, but i have no one to ask for help!!
