What are you looking for - stablilty or ease? And the stability 
does'nt come with that big a price where ease of use is concerned.

It is also, so easy to botch up a upgrade if the install script in 
the packaged rpm is not right...i am sure you have run across such 
rpms.

That does'nt say much about the ISP or RedHat either. Any decent ISP 
will/should not not a twentieth of the packages that come with a 
REdhat CD..and most of the ones that need to be installed have to be 
upgraded to current by the time you install anyway, completely 
dissolving the distro concept. My ISP used to run RH 6.0 until very 
recently. Among services that were running were, nntp, sunrpc, X, 
pop3, httpd, smtp, etc etc..

I'd love to see an ISP that had decent people administering it...not 
one which had a recent distro installed.
