   It still has proper jails and great ZFS integration. The latter will share the   
   codebase with the Linux variant starting the next release, I think (after   
   other players like OpenSolaris & co. dropped out). Apart from storage,   
   networking has always been one of the things FreeBSD excels at.

   It's certainly a better choice from my point of view. It comes with FreeBSD,   
   too (although a previous version), as one of the three or so built-in packet   
   filters to choose from.
