Welcome to FreeBSDwiki.net.

The goal is to create a common knowledge store which could also be referred to as "FreeBSD for the Impatient" - in other words, a place where it is easy to delve straight into simple answers about common needs and problems relating to both FreeBSD servers and their integration into other types of networks.

NOTE2: As of 2013-06-11, freebsdwiki.net is now closed to public registration/editing due to spambots. Sorry people, I just don't have the time to keep up with deleting the hundreds of bots that make it PAST the filters every day. :( If you're a real human and you're bright enough to figure out how to email me (at jrs-s.net), feel free to request a working login, and I'll be happy to send you one.
