    Question Red Hat Enterprise 3 or Fedora

    Hi

    We are starting with Colo and are a bit unsure, which operating system we should choose.

    We will buy some DELL Servers and they recomended us the Red Hat Enterprise 3 incl. 1 year subscription.

    They told us, that we don't need to renew this subscription after a year and can take the updates from other sites. Is this really true?

    The other solution would be Fedora, but I was reading in some other postings, that this system is actually not for productive servers.

    Which of this 2 OS do you recomend for WHM/cpanel?

    Thanks
    Mike

    Try CentOS.

    www.centos.org

    It's RHE for free.

    If you are using them for production then RHE would probably be the way to go. With Fedora there are lots of updates since it is a very aggressively developed OS. You could always go with FreeBSD.

    Thanks for the answers.

    For what is actually the fee when I buy RHE? Is this just a one time fee and if I need support, I can renew it? Or I need to renew it, as long as I want to use RHE?

    Thanks
    Mike
