Re: Fedora 7 for Remote Server

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I would agree.  I run RHEL4 and RHEL5 on many remote servers. CENTOS5 is just a free version of this with few differences.  Fedora is not going to be at the same level of reliability.

That being said, I also run F7 remotely.  It has been fine so far.
RHEL (CENTOS ) would get the nod though.  It should have zero reboots or hangs ( based on stable hardware ) ever.

Just a thought. Have you looked into CentOS 5?
