AdamGundry 03-12-2005, 06:14 AM Linux and Solaris are different operating systems, of which only the latter is actually a UNIX derivative. Linux comes in different distributions, which are sets of additional programs and other features collected together. Examples include Red Hat/Fedora and Mandrake. Most distributions include a graphical desktop environment such as KDE or Gnome. Personally, I use Mandrake (a distribution) with KDE (a desktop environment), and I've also heard good things about SuSE. Perhaps you might find this article (http://www.linux.org/lessons/beginner/l1/lesson1c.html) useful. Adam CID Design 03-23-2005, 08:06 PM It Depends on what you are going to use for? For a desk top use Red Hat 9 or Fedora 3? If your planning to use it for FTP then use Red Hat 8 or 9 If your planning to use it for web hosting then use Red Hat9/SuSE/Fedora 3 Then put any other programs on top of those! On my personel computer I use Dual Boot Win 2000 pro/ Red Hat 9 My Web Server uses Red Hat7.3 with RPM upgrades. MY FTP Server is Red Hat 8.0 with RPM upgrades. My New Web Server is going to be Red Hat 9 with Plex on top. I'm Testing SuSE now for an Email Server. My work Stations in my office are Win 98. So Like I said It Depends on what you are going to use for? webdeveloper.com
