Hello,

 

Let's first start off by saying that I am I 15 year old "newbie" to UNIX. I
grew up with Microsoft Windows, so this is a little different for me. My
uncle set me up with gnome bsd not to long ago, before that I had KDE 3.1
(*never knew how to use that either*). The purpose of this machine is to run
24X7 as a host web server. I want user to remotely connect to my machine
with other programs such as putty.exe. But my uncle is familiar with this
enough to help me there, I just need connected. I would prefer to be hooked
up "wirelessly", but I don't know what gnome is compatible with. I use a
LINKSYS USB-B (*wusb11*) on my "Microsoft machine", can I buy another
adaptor for freebsd or gnome? It can be the usb one or the PCI type. I just
need a little help getting this bad boy connected to the internet.

 

 
Any help will be appreciated, thanks,

 
Blain
