&gt; &gt;&gt;Anyone have some pointers for good FreeBSD books?  I'm particularly
&gt; &gt;&gt;interested in using it as a firewall, and for serving up 
&gt; some web page
&gt; &gt;&gt;to local clients.
&gt; &gt;&gt;    
&gt; &gt;&gt;
&gt; &gt;Why?
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt;For 99% of applications BSD has no advantages over Linux.
&gt; &gt;  
&gt; &gt;
&gt; 
&gt; For the sole purpose of learning a new OS, of course.  I work in 
&gt; academia, so I'm constantly searching out new things to learn 
&gt; to better 
&gt; myself, and thus, to better the research goals of the 
&gt; Institute.  I had 
&gt; a spare dual-proc box laying around, and two spare gigE nics, so I 
&gt; figured...why not learn how to make a FreeBSD firewall?  I've done 
&gt; firewalls with RedHat, IPCOP, SmoothWall, and purchased DLink and 
&gt; Linksys solutions, and now want to move on to someting else.  :)
&gt; 
&gt; Thanks!
