Short Answer: I'd use latest available. Long Answer:
I'd use the latest available RH Version (always use latest if possible) (double check for errata from RH on https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/rh8-errata.html ) Then I toast the RPMs for PERL, OpenSSL, Apache, PHP, and PostgreSQL packages, sometimes libxml2 Then I put all those packages back on from their source so I have the latest version/fixes/features. The PHP site (perhaps Apache too) says not to use latest Apache (2.0.43) with latest PHP (4.3.0) in production but I do anyways (cause it works (shouts/props to httpd and php developers!)) with PostgreSQL 7.3. With those options I have machines with uptimes around 60 days (some more/some less). I've upgraded apache and php while "live" with out problems. When a new version of RH comes out...I'll put it on new machines, but if it's not broke (my RH80 installs) then don't fix it (except for security issues...fix those now!) /B ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ezra Nugroho" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2003 08:56 Subject: RH for server > This is just a quick pool to see how people feel about RH distros. > > RH 7.3 is a .3 distro, with a lot of bug fixes since 7.0, but it's gcc > 2.9 based. > > RH 8.0 is a .0 version, and the only RH with gcc 3.2 based. > > Rh 8.1 is coming in a few monts. > > > If you were to deploy new servers in a few months, which RH version > would you rather use? > > Thanks, > > > > > > -- > redhat-list mailing list > unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
