Ever wonder if you should use freebsd? What is freebsd good for? The link that is at about 3:04 no longer exists cause my server is down due to rebuilding
Hey, JROCK20041, what do you think about the differencies between FreeBSD and MacOSX’s Darwin which was built on top of FBSD? do you find it faster, cleaner or the opposite?
who cares? are you fucking dumb or something? why should anyone care for his sexual orientation? do YOU care? are YOU a FAGGOT? people like you make internet a very childish place. No reasonable arguments, just stupid “he’s a fag”.
why would you care about windows users not being able to use a computer running a unix-like OS anyway?
people trying a new to ‘adopt’ any bsd OS should start with the command line and learn about everything there is with it, then move on using x and whatever window manager if they absolutely need to use one so in the case that they don’t know what to do with the GUI, they could just pop a terminal work from there.
if someone doesn’t learn the commands and uses only the GUI, imo, he is retarded
I don’t think windows users could use freebsd for the first time as a desktop ( set-up a DE and stuff like that …only if they want to read more documents ) ….i would say DesktopBSD( freeBSD with a KDE ) for new BSD comers .
Oracle is piece of shit DB (i’ve dealt with it) lots of banks now days use their very own very custom DB. Red Hat has totally piece of shit support and very expensive(I’ve dealt with it) and distro itself is a piece of shit itself. In 2001 RHEL was THE leader, but then many people noticed its “shitness” and moved away from it. What is it about FreeBSD that makes it best for servers? THE LOGIC! THE CLEAN CODE! Very clean and neat os. Heck, I used to be mega linux fan until I tried FreeBSD…
ippon,
The only reason Linux is gaining share is due to third party applications – Oracle, BEA, Webshpere, EMC…
I would like to compare equals with equals. To be fair, you will need to compare FreeBSD with a similar distro. Generalising any advantages that a specific distro may enjoy over BSD to all linux distros is deluding.
How many companies use Ubunti Jeos in a production environment?

I do not know what kind of servers you talk about. I worked as a sysadmin for a leading bank. So far as my experience goes, there are two factors that determine the platform of choice: Applications and Support. Both of these should give the highest benefit to the company.
In the case of running databases, Oracle runs only on RH, Suse and Oracle EL.
Also in some cases, features matter. Most stock exchanges use VMS, NSK or VOS to run the trading. Maybe you are talking about webhosting.bye
Is there anything wrong with linux on a serious server? Everything is ported to it, its stable, etc. At their core the distro doesn’t really matter. Gentoo is nice just because it automates so much. If you have access to any fast computer, compiling is no problem, especially since you can chroot to your server over nfs and compile using external resources.
I can’t speak for bsd as I don’t use it, I just know linux is pleanty robust for the job.
Gentoo has only recently seen progressive activity. You talk about linux being a fantastic choice for a server, but is this true of Gentoo? Many sysadmins have an issue with FreeBSD in that it is constantly evolving and needs to be updated ideally using ports in which case you need to compile changes. Debian’s/Centos’ method of tracking binary updates seems to be the prefered solution.
For serious server deployments Solaris, Stratus VOS, Tandem & iOS still seem to be the platforms of choice.
I have noticed a lot of mud-slinging here at the FreeBSD project. As an entirely volunteer-driven project we need to be thankful that it exists and gives us a choice. For those that talk about Linux’s desktop strengths, remember that but for software from proprietory vendors, linux would have done no better. Companies like IBM, HP and Oracle are contributing to LInux to promote their own middleware and hardware.
VMS and iOS are not exactly desktop OSes, but are untouchable in the server space.
Ports is great. The thing that makes it a bit difficult to argue for bsd on the desktop is the fact that theres gentoo. I think most of the time you are just going to have a better experience on gentoo simply because of hardware compatibility and amount of software ported for the system. Linux makes a fantastic server too, so I’m kind of wondering where bsd has the advantage even in the server world.
I have nothing against niggers or faggot, so I won’t bash you for that, kid.
we need flash
vm linux guest for now.
dude theres black people then theres niggers niggers being gangsters then theres the reputable black man (Y) im white btw
negro please
… 8l
gtfo nigger faggot

this guy is a faggot
if u think freebsd sux for newbie windows idiots try pc-bsd
ww w. pc-bsd . org

wrong
FreeBSD is doing just fine, being a new desktop user, that sucks.
free BSD sucks for new desktop user .

Thats a good question:) Long time ago I showed Novell Netware 5 to my friend he said “you can’t even watch porn on it! What kind of OS is that?”:))
I’m planning to use FreeBSD to make a dedicated server to host a WoW private server.

I was just pointing out; that the majority use of linux is servers. that all.
as for as ubuntu JEOS that was developed last year – so it fairly new.

can i setup freebsd to watch p0rn too? is it hard?
