Welcome!

Quite possibly, though I suspect that the best suggestion I have for you
at this point is to start becoming familiar with the mailing lists at
FreeBSD.org.  [Direct a Web browser to
http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo to subscribe, change your
subscription options, or unsubscribe.]

>What is measurement should we report daily/weekly/monthly?

I am not clear on what your questions mean.  I presume that you wish to
manage some aspect of the FreeBSD systems, and that you therefore wish
to measure something.  What is it you wish to measure?

>And what specialization there is in FreeBSD system administration?

Extreme.  :-}  Some firms use FreeBSD systems to run some of the busier
publicly-visible systems on the Net (Yahoo!, for example).  My own
experience has mostly been supporting developers who were using FreeBSD
on their desktops, as well as as a base OS for an appliance.

>Thank you very much for help.

I'm sorry I probably wasn not able to help as much as either of us would
like.  Please feel free to follow up, either privately or on the list.

Peace,
