Which of these two OS's is best for cpanel in your opinions?

[drmuey]

I am trying to decide between running cpanel on top of the latest freebsd (5.1) or the latest redhat. (9).

I use both at work so am comfortable with both. I'm leaning toward freebsd 5.1 but we had troubel installing cpanel on freebsd before and I think cpanel is developed mainly on a redhat system.

So what are your opinions, which of the two os's would be the best to install cpanel on, pros, cons, opinions please!

Thanks,

Dan

FreeBSD 5.1 isn't yet support .. However it should work ok with the latest freebsd edge build

I personally believe that cPanel is mainly for Red Hat, as cPanel support on FreeBSD has sometimes been screwy, or some stuff was not compiled/installed properly on an upgrade causing errors.

In my personal opinion, go with Red hat.
