Re: Fedora Makes a Terrible Server?



Actually, CentOS 5.1 isn't that bad as a desktop. So you could probably get
away
with using just one machine. The Linux desctop have come a long way, and you
no
longer need to be on the bleeding edge to have a resonable set of
functionality.

The general wisdom from fedora power users is:
- Fedora for the desktop / workstation
- CentOS for the home server or other unsupported server
- RedHat for a serious server or otherwise when support is needed

* by support I mean paid support

Also, SELinux isn't nearly that hard. I wouldn't put a box on the open
internet without SELinux.


Well I guess I was hoping for the best of both worlds by having my
desktop "act" as a server. Why have 2 machines when 1 will do?

Too much to ask, I know.
