Hello Gurus,



Im planing to move out of my FreeBSD 4.8-R! which served me like a charm for many years.

But not sure if I should go for 6.3 or 7.2

This server will be a DNS server, apache, shell accounts..php, mysql..



anything i should be aware of?

Advices?



Thank you.

Marwan

Recommend sticking with 7.x branch until 8.0 has been through one or two solid releases. Then you should be able to perform a csup and rebuild the world to the current version of 8.x at the time.
