I have around 120 smp systems running RedHat 8.0 and five systems still 
running RedHat 6.2. 
They're all happy, productive and working very hard around the clock.

This won't change for at least a year or more, or until I have a direct 
need for a change, which will probably be 2.6 kernel requirements from the 
developers I work with.

When change is required, I'll use Fedora or a slightly customized/ 
optimized distro derived from the newest Fedora Core.

BTW, I'm still amazed at all the FUD and assumptions regarding RedHat and 
Fedora.  It's incredible what some people can dream up after reading a 
news headline or some Slashdot trollbait.
Maybe I'll write up something for the OLUG site, if anyone's interested in 
the facts...

[olug] Server OS after Dec 31, 2003







Is anyone using the following for production servers now or planned for
2004?

Trustix 2.0 -
Red Hat Enterprise ES 3 -
Red Hat 9 -
SUSE Pro 9 -
United Linux 1 -
Debian 3 -
Fedora Core 1-
Mandrake 9.2 -
Knoppix 3.3 -

or others not mentioned above?

When and if time allows I will put this in a PHP Poll page someday.
Unless someone knows a link to a current poll page that is not passworded.
