First, I would like to know about the differences between fedora and rhel 3. I have read through the web page of redhat and fedora.
1) Could I put it into simple words, Fedora is just like RedHat 6.2, 7.... 9, except it doesn't have any further rpm patch update from redhat? And rhel 3 is a continuation of rhel 2.
2) If that is the case, how could I upgrade fedora when there is security hole? compile the new source myself?
3) Is there a centralize and easy patching system on Fedora for deploying patch on mass servers? yum!?
4) I am also serious considering migration the RedHat servers to other linux distribution such as debian. But I think the migration would be difficult. Any suggestion or comment?
5) a stupid question, is Fedora as stable as RedHat 9? I think so.
Btw, my application on these servers are mainly apache, innd and perl apllications.
Thanks, Bill HKUST
