The machine specs would range from P4 2.8GHz to Dual Xeon 2.4Ghz. Linux Redhat 9 Linux Fedora Core Release 1 Linux Fedora Core Release 2 twastudios 10-11-2004, 08:21 PM We use FC1 and it works great. hostbox 10-11-2004, 08:21 PM Why don't you try CentOS? jhunholz 10-11-2004, 09:20 PM If you are going to use one of the listed OS's, I would definately recommend FC2. It is quite stable, and it also uses the 2.6 kernel! EonAndrew 10-11-2004, 09:41 PM I would reccomend CentOS over fedora or redhat 9. However i would have to go with fadora core 2 if any of those. jdoverclock 10-11-2004, 10:37 PM definitely CentOS 3.3 :) Coolraul 10-11-2004, 11:44 PM FC2 but we have servers running RH9 that have not been switched over yet and they too run fine. I am not sure there is a huge difference but we do keep our kernels up to date minimum monthly. w33t 10-12-2004, 01:26 AM I would recommend Gentoo (if you know how to compile and use it) John Black 10-12-2004, 10:10 AM Thanks for the input, keep the comments coming until I order the dedicated at the end of the month. Maxo 10-12-2004, 11:40 AM I would recommend CentOS as well. |
