consideration
for me has been the upgrade path; with Debian 3.1 (Sarge), the
ability to
split all custom overrides from the default templates has protected my
systems during upgrades. However my Fedora systems have either lost
the
configurations, or the upgrade has been problematic if I do not
install the
new default configuration templates. I have no mail server
experience with
SuSE. Good luck on your choice.
thanks Tim, I suppose that given that in the application space (exim,
apache and all services I will install from source) I can decide
where to put the configuration, I should not have too many problems
with system upgrades (that will not be performed by me, being a
virtual server). I tend to concentrate all configurations under a
specific custom path that should be left alone.
