Hi,
I've got an old server P-IV used as webserver (FreeBSD 5.x, Apache, PHP, MySQL). FreeBSD 5 is obsolete, and I would like to upgrade it.
Which of the two latest FreeBSD versions (8.3 and 9.1) is the best to install on this old hardware?
Thanks!

Another question: what will be the safiest path to update FreeBSD 5.5 to the latest stable release? There is a dozen of sites running on the server and I would like to keep them running...
Thanks!
