Fedora is designed as a desktop OS rather than a server.
I suppose saying that would be misleading . What designates an operating system as server or desktop depends on the service or software running. In the case of Fedora or Red Hat the user decides that ; Recalling old redhat 7,8 or 9 during install you had option to choose between desktop or server or install everything On Tue, Jun 23, 2009 at 11:48 AM, Alex Nderitu <nderitualex@gmail.com>wrote:
There is never really much difference between the Linux flavors (its much more what you are comfortable working with). The stability of an linux/unix server is much more about how proper the installation, hardening and configuration is done rather than the distro. Wikipedia has been running fedora for sometime (though they are standardizing to Ubuntu) and you will agree with me it has one of the most stable systems.

and what is the difference of deploying fedora in place of Red Hat?
Fedora is designed as a desktop OS rather than a server. Think of it in this context: You can use Windows XP as a web server, but wouldn't you rather use, say, Windows 2000 Server? _______________________________________________ Skunkworks mailing list Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks Other services @ http://my.co.ke Other lists ------------- Skunkworks announce: http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks-announce Science - http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/science kazi - http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/kazi/general
