FreeBSD 4.8 is very stable. 5.x has some problems. (its new)
Sendmail works fine in FreeBSD 4.8. Named is considered insecure
because people use it. If you pick another product to be "safe", make
sure no one uses it. Any suggestion on this list would be to popular
to be "safe". As I said in my last email, people find holes in popular
software more often because they are looking.
If you keep your software up to date, you are "safe" from named or
sendmail exploits. This is true on all platforms and will remain true.
(well ok microsoft doesn't fix everything)
