Giuliano Wouldn't use Fedora as the update cycle is too much (every 3 months) and I've lots of problems with busy filesystem problems on FC - ie FC is not an enterprise solution, too bleeding edge.
I'd say Debian, the apt-get system is more ports like but suse ia a good alternative. Out of interest why not FreeBSD? -- Martin Hepworth Snr Systems Administrator Solid State Logic Tel: +44 (0)1865 842300 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Giuliano Gavazzi Sent: 20 September 2005 01:23 To: Mailinglist EXIM Subject: [exim] which linux for exim I am going run a server on a virtual hosting facility and am forced to use some flavour of Linux. The options are: - Linux Fedora - Debian 3.1 - SuSE Linux 9.2 which one in your opinion is easier to configure the usual (for me) way as I am used to install packages with configure (if required, not the case of exim) and then make, etc. I must say that I am not impressed by the number of problems raised on this list in the past by Debian users, but does that just mean that Debian is popular or that they used outdated packages...? My personal preference would have been FreeBSD as I have some experience with it (and indirectly as a MacOSX administrator). If anyone has knowledge of a virtual hosting facility in Italy supporting it please email me off list.
