My company is buying a new Dell server (2x2.4GHz P4 Xeon, 2Gb RAM, 73Gb
RAID 1 SCSI) for our production customer facing web site and I have been
trying to decide on which Linux distribution to use. It needs to run
Apache, tomcat, sendmail, mysql, php and bind and have minimum downtime.
We normally have about 25Gb of HTTP traffic a month, but is likely to
double over the next 12 months. I am not fussed about having paid for
support (that's my job!)
I was going to choose RH9 (after deciding against Debian), but I just
found out about Fedora. Is Core 1 suitable for this type of environment?
Or would you recommend I go with RH9 or Debian.
Cheers.
