Re: [Freeswitch-users] Prefered Linux Distro to run FS on
Hi guys, I'm using Bluewhite64 for my Linux Servers. No problems compiling and using FS, but not funny if you have dependencies problems (no yum or aptitude available to solve your problems). Really stable and secure Linux 64 bit distribution. Obviously, as the system administrator, you have to take care of keeping the system up to date with security patches and proper configurations.

I've tried FS on ESX, but not cheap. Works good for small environments. I've never virtualized FS for big or critical systems.

Re: [Freeswitch-users] Prefered Linux Distro to run FS on
We are using ubuntu 8.04 in Xen(also hosted by ubuntu 8.04, Ubuntu 8.10 is not xen friendly) as our testing server. It works well, however we only use that to test our business logic, not press test at all. On Mar 6, 2009, at 9:01 PM, EdPimentl wrote: Anyone using uBuntu 8.10 and XEN?
