ummmm when your responsible for what I am, yeah, because I'm paid to not
have things fuck up, but since we moved all servers to Slackware, we've
never had a single hiccup, so I aint had to any problems in years.
for fucks sake, RH cant even sort out their own rsync servers, why would I
try trusting them again, its a complete joke, and the funny thing is, the
same person resposible for it is probably still in that job
Which is why you would run something like RHEL for production
No.... Its exactly why I dont run it. I've used RHEL, RHES and more
recently the RHEL clone CentOS, they are all still bloated to buggery,
unnecessary crud = unnecessary risks, Once a Slackware server is installed
it rarely needs to be touched, only if we want to put a new kernel in, or
the once in a blue moon security update, which is rare because of the
non-bloatness and non-butchering, slackware is essentially a install and
forget, it gives us more time to do new projects.
