freeBSD Unix Administration...
Hello there !
I am little bit confuse about freeBSD and Sun Solaris, Susue, Mandrake.
Is freeBSD is same like Sun Solaris ? i mean if i will have freeBSD software, i can administrator same like i am administring Unix O.S ?
I want to be Unix Administrator, so if i will install freeBSD and will work on it can i be able to do System Administration and will apply for System Administrator job ?
The freeBSD software which can be found from CompUSA is full Operating System software ?
Please explain me this in detail, i know there are alot out there who have the same question as i do.
I will appriciate if Neo will also express his views..
Thanks
Abid Malik
