That sounds pretty typical for a commercial hardware or software vendor. If you're attaching a linux server to a Hitachi or EMC storage box, or running Oracle or Veritas on Linux, you're much more likely to get support if you're running RedHat or CentOS. Lot's of commercial vendors don't want to support any thing that isn't RedHat-ish. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
