With regards it being on FreeBSD v Linux there shouldn't be any
noticeable differences. My site's hosted on Linux but I do the
MySQL/PHP development on FreeBSD.

www.gradwell.net run FreeBSD & you can use either MySQL or PostgreSQL,
I think - if that's any use to you.

Not too sure if you are doing any of the system administration from
your description but if you need to & get stuck give me a shout.
