TheRaven64's Journal: The Complete FreeBSD

O'Really were kind enough to send me a free copy of The Complete FreeBSD (4th Edition), so I have reviewed it. Free stuff is nice. In related new, I have just bought a dual PIII 700 box off eBay, and am going to use it to play with FreeBSD more. At the moment I am dual booting my desktop with FreeBSD (4.8) and Windows 2000. I plan to gradually ditch 2000, but the first step to that is to remove my mail spool and home directory to a server, so I can access them from whatever OS I'm using. Putting them on a FAT32 partition is not an option, since FAT32 does not support Windows NT or UNIX style file permissions. Putting them on a UFS partition accessed over NFS or SMB should.
