FreeBSD 7 Request

[kstrmn]

Hi,

I know your resources do not allow you to catch up with the free's evolution, but FreeBSD 7 is a real big thing, with a major performance boost, incl. very sexy sql speedup. It's the fastest free server os today (10%-20% avrg), and a FreeBSD7+LSWS Ent combo is what would make happy more people than you probably think.

P.S. Check your Wordpress demo.

We aware of the improvement in FreeBSD7, if our FreeBSD6 package breaks on FreeBSD7 we will start to offer dedicate package for FreeBSD7.
It only require creating a few symbolic links for libc.so libcrypt.so libm.so to use our FreeBSD6 package on the 7.

FreeBSD ports is there to help you

For brand new portsnap users:
>portsnap fetch
>portsnap extract

For existings ones:
> portsnap update

For all of them:

> cd /usr/ports/misc/compat6x/
> make install clean


And lsws should work fine, but did not check yet.
