You said your using RedHat, do you have a choice in that?, are you okay
with linux? Give SuSE a shot - as a distro is much better, german
engineering and that and its got the backing, now that Novell has taken
over shop (Novell of IT excellence, as opposed the marketing finesse of
RedHat). for a little more extreme try Debian - if you can handle using
a bash shell you will find it joyful, its start off with `aptget`, a few
configures, make, make installs, zoom.
Im no expert but I can setup servers ok, I just FTFM and it takes me a
while :-) and lately Ive been setting up a fairly complex php
webshop/site/cms type thing for a company that insists on redhat "server
bla bla bla edition" - and its a nightmare - try setting up
php5/firebird1.5/apache argh - well the guy that set it up said "argh"
and next to me he's an honest to god wizard! they have it set so that
technically you have to login to a website of redhat and the
site logs into your machine and finds out whats installed, which it then
reports back to you on the site. WTF!!! its pure madness. a man
obviously thought this up. straight up.
in my world:
1. RedHat - like treading in something brown and steaming.
2. SuSE - like driving in a Mercedes, but not always a brandnew one.
3. Debian - spaceship (or more precisely: The Tardis).
which would you choose?
just MHO
