Ultra60 for production environment?



Hi all

I've got an Ultra60 with two 18GB SCSI-drives running under Solaris 7 as a mail, file and webserver with webmail and the usual things. It's getting pretty unmaintainable because it's been set up by my predecessor and most programms were compiled "by hand" with a lot of dependencies to GNU tools and the like. Updating one programm for security reasons always means resolving old and probably new dependencies (i.e. gettext for IMP, openssl for apache and sIMAP etc.).

I plan to use Debian with kernel 2.4 (I'm used to iptables), RAID 1 (Soft- or Hardware?) and the usual software tools (apache, spamassassin, openLDAP...). I'd like to hear your unbiased (cough) opinions on stability of Debian for sun4u, the possible choice of the correct software tools etc.

Thanks a lot.

Arthur
