  Is HP-Ux Intel Based? If so, you should be good.

> 1. How is RedHat?
  If you mean Redhat Enterprise 5.0, it's ok. havn't had any issues
  although we are running UV 10.0.1

> 2. Will I have to re-compile and re-catalog everything?
  I would think if you are going intel to intel, and your directory
  structure hasn't changed, you should be ok without having to
  recompile, although, to be safe I'd do it.

  What is suitable? Stable?

  There are a few. Redhat uses cups for printing (we have had our share
  or issues with this). Some of the packages it installs are not current
  and we have to download, compile and install from source (vs using yum).

  The biggest gotcha, and it's not a Redhat specific, was when we recreated
  the users, we had to make sure their UID/GID were the same as from the
  previous system, otherwise the file ownership and group ownership would
  not be the same.
