To be honest Ted I'm not comfortable with Linux full stop. I don't get the time to learn basically, so what would be best is the simplest version to get to work. What I'm after is setting up a mail server to get rid of MS exchange. I want to be able to use multiple domains much as I can with IIS for web sites. Also a mailing list server like mailman. I did have the latter set up before but that was a while ago. And also maybe for mono for cross-platform stuff.
Al -----Original Message----- Ubuntu Server in the LTS (Long-Term Support) version is also a good choice. They both run 98% the same code -- Linux kernel, POSIX tools, your choice of FOSS applications -- but are tweaked and configured a bit differently. The primary differences are the package managers and the tools they use to add/remove programs: Ubuntu uses the Debian style .deb files and apt commands, while CentOS uses .rpm files and the yum commands. Again, both are installing pretty much the same software, it's more of a question of what you're more comfortable with. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/002701cc72d4$94b33ef0$be19bcd0$@com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
