I need to set up several servers, some for my home business, and some
for my work. I do not need very many features like the latest
Bluetooth gizmos. I just want a system that does not crash a lot,
upgrades cleanly, has long term support, and uses system resources
nicely.
After recent disappointments with Fedora 8, I am looking elsewhere. I
kind of liked Ubuntu and am wondering if anyone tried Debian or Ubuntu
servers.
Have you found a rock solid, easy to upgrade linux server distro?
I do not want much, all I need is kernel, filesystems, ssh, LAMP stack
and that's all. (where P stands for Perl)
I believe Debian is the usual distribution that's used for servers, as it
uses "tried & tested" software & often lags behind other distros for "cutting
edge" stuff.
OTOH you could use an Ubuntu LTS (Long Term Support) version too, more info
