I basically have a question, I have a website that uses C++ executible Linux command
programs, it runs the commands from perl via. exec and system calls.  How can I use
these programs on a FreeBSD system?  Would I have to buy FreeBSD and compile the C++
code on FreeBSD for the programs to work?

You can email me at jon@campbellsolar.com

Jon, FreeBSD is free... You can download the isos from www.freebsd.org. As far as your programs, it depends on if the code is portable or not. FreeBSD has Linux Binary support so it depends on what libraries your code is using. If you are using a standard linux command or a package you found on the net there is a possibility that there is a port of that command for FreeBSD.
