Has anyone seen http://servers.yahoo.com/
Were Yahoo is now offering webhosting and managed servers.
The strangest part is the info they give for FreeBSD: See below
and the comparitive listing for Linux in which they really seem to be pushing
Linux and also the cobalt Raq.
1) FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE ? Hello?
2) They don't seem to even mention that Yahoo uses FreeBSD
3) Do you think they could have said.. Please use Linux any harder?
4) Are they offing this themselves or have they made a deal with some company?
It just seems so odd to see out of Yahoo....

FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE
FeeSD is an open source BSD UNIX operating system. Developed and
maintained by a core team, FreeBSD came to life in 1993 and has grown in
popularity ever since. This operating system has earned a reputation of being
very secure and stable, even under the most demanding circumstances. It is
for this reason that many corporations have chosen it for their mission
critical servers. FreeBSD comes with full server functionality, including web,
DNS, email, FTP, news, telnet and encrypted telnet servers. Additionally,
FreeBSD comes with the extensive ports collection, which allows for simple
one-step downloading, configuring, and installing of thousands of
applications. FreeBSD is respected for flexibility and reliability. If you're
FreeBSD savvy, this is the choice for you. For more information on the
FreeBSD operating system, please visit www.freebsd.org.
RedHat Linux 6.1
RedHat Linux is an open source, UNIX derivative operating system. Originally
created by a Finnish university student, Linus Torvalds, Linux has been
further developed by programmers around the world, and has become an
excellent, low cost alternative to commercial UNIX operating systems.
RedHat Linux comes with full server functionality, including web, DNS, email,
FTP, news, telnet and encrypted telnet servers. Yahoo! Servers also include
an easy-to-use, console-based configuration utility to simplify common
server tasks such as starting and stopping services and creating virtual web
accounts. RedHat Linux is an excellent choice for people interested in
administering their own machine, who have had some experience with UNIX
operating systems, and who are looking for stability, scalability and
versatility.
