All,

Apologies for cluttering the list, but I just wanted to say hello and prepare all for a barage of silly discussions from a tech-hypochondriac! We have recently purchased two servers running CentOS, and as I'm from more of a Debian based background, it would be good if someone could point out the two or three main differences please?

There are different run levels for CentOS (3 is CLI mode, 5 is GUI mode) than Debian.

Package management is different, as you say below.  Here is a guide for yum:

I'm reading up on the package management as I type, but any quick tips and tricks for (web) server admin with CentOS would be magic.

Also read up on SELinux.

I have only done minor things on Debian so I can't offer much more than that :D
