cpanel/whm not available on FreeBSD 7 latest 64 bit??

[erick_paper]

My hosting company tells me I cannot have cpanel/whm with freebsd 7 64 bit. Is this a cpanel limitation or my hosting company's problem???

You may want to read the page more closely. That listing is for old operating systems we support existing installations upon. We support new installs on the following versions:

FreeBSD®-RELEASE versions 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 7.0

However, some folks do use FreeBSD 7.2 RELEASE with cPanel/WHM.

IMO cPanel runs very well on FreeBSD 7.x 64bit and we have several servers using specifically 7.2.
