[opensuse] opensuse 10.2 or 10.2 on production web server?
hi, I'm looking for dedicated server to put websites of my clients. No shopping carts and ecommerce ("sensitive") sites but sites, but they are paid and clients expect to be up & live all the time. I found on hetzner.de VERY good offer and the review I read was really good. I decided to go for it. they offer as OS Debian 4.0 min/LAMP*, openSuSE 10.2 min, openSuSE 10.3 min/LAMP*, Ubuntu 7.04 min, Ubuntu 7.10 min. I already use openSuse 10.2, openSuse 10.3 on my desktop and laptop. Though, I'm a little bit concern about using 10.2 or 10.3 for "production" server? I would like to hear your opinion. Thanks. -ll ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing.

Although openSUSE would work, personally, I would use SLES10. It has a long support period, no need to reinstall every 2 years. It's much more to it than that, look around the novell page. http://www.novell.com/linux/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Are you planning on having an identical "QA" system that you use to test config changes, security patches, etc. And are you planning on NOT installing X. If so, I would be comfortable with openSuse from my experience. If you can't run a lamp server without X or you don't plan to have a dedicated identical test system to test rollouts, patches, etc. I personally don't think you should be selling any sort of service. FYI: On the servers I have inhouse, I have X installed and if I want to access the gui, I run startx, but in general they are CLI only. I don't recall X ever killing the CLI function, but I have definitely had X / KDE functionality issues.
