RE: [SLE] What are differences ?

In the main , there are a few different locations for some config files, plus RH uses linuxconf, whereas SuSE uses the propriatary YaST. The only other factor is price - 26 UK pounds (approx. $40) buys you the full 6-cd box set with lots of apps including Star Office, WordPerfect etc. The SuSE book is also quite good, though I wouldn't neccessarily say better than the RH one. -----Original Message----- From: George Toft [SMTP:grtoft@yahoo.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 26, 2000 3:24 PM To: suse-linux-e Subject: Re: [SLE] What are differences ? moth wrote:

What are differences betwen SUSE and REDHAT

Jerry said quality. I agree with this in that Red Hat is notoriously slow in their security updates. SuSE, on the other hand, has received praise in the media about their efforts to fix their Linux distribution as soon as exploits are discovered. Having been on the wrong side of a break-in due to Red Hat's security delinquencies, I'm real sensitive about security. -- George Toft http://www.georgetoft.com -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/ "WorldSecure Server " made the following annotations on 01/26/00 15:41:08 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The opinions expressed within this email represent those of the individual and not necessarily those of Lombard.
