Re: Debian as a server.



 Thanks, really.  Thank you very much for your comprehensive good
news!
  Andreas.

: I use Debian Linux boxes for nearly all important (i.e. can't afford any
: downtime) internet related servers. I also use it as the main Windows
: SMB file server (with samba) at my main job.
: 
: Linux's reliability can't be beat, especially if the core kernel is
: surrounded by an excellent quality distribution like debian.

...

: In fact, my experiences over the last 4 or 5 years have convinced me
: beyond *any* doubt that commercial software vendors can NOT even begin
: to approach either the stability OR the speed of development cycle which
: freeware community-developed systems like Linux have.
: 
: New features are developed and debugged in about a tenth of the time on
: Linux....mostly because of the huge number of enthusiastic volunteers,
: and partly because the development is driven by tech-heads who (mostly
: :-) know what they're doing rather than by marketing-droids who probably
: can't even set the clock on their VCRs.
