Hi,
I'm about to set up a new server that should run basically
network-monitoring (MRTG, Cacti etc.). Hardware will be HP C-class
blade based on AMD Opterons.
Should I stick with FreeBS 6.x or wait for FreeBSD 7 (see
http://www.freebsd.org/releng/index.html - "June 2007 Start FreeBSD
7.0 Release Process).
Note "start". The release is still many months away, so presumably
you do not wish to wait until then to install your server :) You
should definitely keep an eye on it though, there is a lot of good
stuff coming up in 7.0.
The question basically is: Will FreeBSD7 be "current" or "stable"?
We are running several non-critical (including this T42 laptop) and one
critical (SMTP) machine with -CURRENT and so far it's been a matter of
getting the source from a good moment in time, mostly the snapshots. So
far very few problems. You need a testbed to try stuff out on though.
