FreeBSD was explained to me as linux, but with a different mascot. Without going into that, I have started pushing myself to learn it, due to it being ZFS compatible. I'm debating switching from OpenSolaris to FreeBSD for my fileserver so that I can keep ZFS, but have a little bit more mature system. I'm not set on the switch, but researching my options.
One thing I've run into with FreeBSD is getting my user into the wheel group. This allows my normal user to su into root. As root, you must run
#pw user mod username -G wheel
Log out, log in, and poof kabam, you're ready to go. Look here for continuing tips for FreeBSD as I dive in.
