The Machine

The machine, www.freebsd.org, otherwise known as freefall.freebsd.org, is 400MHz Pentium Pro machine with a PCI motherboard, 256 megabytes of RAM and about 4 gigabytes of disk space. The search engine for the webpages and the mailing lists is hub.freebsd.org, a 400 MHz Pentium II with 256MB megabytes RAM and about 10 gigabytes disk space.

Naturally, the system runs under the FreeBSD operating system. The hardware and network connection have been generously provided by Walnut Creek CDROM and other contributors to the FreeBSD project.

A complete list of all host names in the FreeBSD.org domain is available at the The FreeBSD.org Network page.

The Software

These pages are served up by the versatile and efficient Apache http server. In addition, there are a few locally crafted CGI scripts. Indexing of these pages and the mailing list archive are provided by freewais-sf, a derivative of the CNIDR freewais.

The Urchin web statistics package is used to provide these statistics on web server usage.

The Pages

These Web pages have been put together by John Fieber <jfieber@freebsd.org> with input from the FreeBSD community and you. The Webmaster is <wosch@freebsd.org>. The FreeBSD pages are HTML 3.2 compliant and best viewed with your browser.
