My options at this point: 1. Go RHEL4.1/centos 2. go fedora core 4 I am leaning towards RHEL4.1/centos since: 1. these are production servers, hence its difficult to reinstall them approximately every 9 months. 2. But will i be missing out on performance improvements since RHEL4.1/Centos take 18 months for each new release. vikas __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
