well, three really bad kernel bugs and now on 2.6 kernel so many new things - in 2004 linux administrators will have to follow security mailing lists very closely. it will be a time consuming job to update kernels every x weeks. Also you will have to be a security expert to get a secured system, as neither debian nor redhat kernels are "hardened" out of the box. maybe itīs better to take a look at adamantix.org, that is based on debian. if freebsd is in your choice, take a deeper look into it. seems to be much more developed. better "jail" solution, especially interesting for webhosting. Better accounting, better filesystem. thatīs how it appears to me. i have average admin knowledge and judge only on one thing: "how much time does it cost to keep the system running". Linux was to expensive last year. Peter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
