Just want to know before I do the jump on the BSD; are you still using 4.9 or 5.x ?!... Thanks...

Currently i'm using 5.2.1, I have yet to make the jump to 5.3

My question to you is are you refering to using it as a Server or a Workstation/Daily use machine?

My setup
Server: 5.2.1
Workstation: 5.2.1

SERVER . . . lol...

5.3-STABLE at home and SM. Last src cvsup was 12/02.

5.3-STABLE on all my servers bar one, which is still 5.2.1 but its a telecoms server so its hard to find time to reboot.

and desktops run 5.3-RELEASE

4.10-STABLE

4.10 on an older production machine, 5.3 and 5.2.1 at home.

4.10-STABLE and 4.11-STABLE on my 2 production servers

5.3-STABLE on my home desktop

The more I use 5.3, the more I want to go back to 4.x.
There's some great new features on 5.x but some of the stability problems just aren't worth it. All depends what you're doing on the server tho.

For me, it'll be a LONG time before I start replacing NFS servers with 5.x. Can you say PANIC?
Desktop machines, 5.x all the way.
Web servers.. toss up but leaning towards 5.3.

UD.

5.4-RELEASE, was using 5.1 -> 5.3 without a problem on production servers.

using 5.3-RELEASE, going to switch to 5.4-RELEASE after my chassis swap is complete.

my other server is running 5.3-RELEASE upgraded from the original install of 5.1

works great.

Running 5.4-RELEASE across the board now.

Run 6. imo its more "4-style" and very stable.

My latest server was ordered with the default 4.10 but was delivered with 6.0 - I was pleased.

Hello, thread bump!

My server now runs 5.4, but I'd like to move it to 6.x when I have time.

FreeBSD 6 is my favorite so far. Definitely a good OS.

3.6+stephanie and 3.9

You can't handle the Open!

Pfft opens fine for firewalls
aaaaaaaaaaand thats about it imo

Agreed.

Running latest and greatest 6.x on all my servers now.

I upgraded my home server to 6.1 and my router to obsd 3.9 over the weekend. Yeehaw!
