I resent the implication that we sysadmins ever think at all! And that even if we did we had brains with which to accomplish the task. Jeff ( A sysadmin) Incidentally the best reason I can think of for using Debian over RedHat from a sysadmin's point of view is that security fixes on Debian arrive very fast and are implemented into the distributions at once, keeping your setup secure is normally a matter of issuing 2 commands a week:- apt-get update apt-get upgrade I have 40+ webservers around the world and it takes me less than 30 minutes to do (I don't automate it because I like to see what is being changed everywhere)
