Dear All,
        Hello there, I am new to this forumn and would like to post a
question in regard to FREEBSD. In the past I have tried installing the
AUGUST 1996 "CDROM.COM" CDROM which I have subscribed to. The
installation goes okay, until I try to start the X-server which then
causes no end of problems. Is there any files any where which explain
what I should do?

        I am also interested in using FREEBSD as a frontage to an
Internet scheme with the Company which I work for. Does anyone have
experience of setting up and using FREEBSD as a Mail Server, and WEB
Server.

        Any help would be appreciated.
