Re: ISP asking about switching to Debian from OpenBSD
dear DD,
before you go and delve into the world of new distros, you need only break
down your whole questionaire into one simple complete thought...
my man, debian is fine for all of your tasks...the real question is, are you
ready for debian?
DNS, webserver, email, and all the other fun stuff will only work as good as
the admin who puts it to use.
to answer your obvious question, of course debian is a fine distro for all
your networking needs. it uses the linux kernel...and, if you're keeping up
to date with that, then all you really need is to keep asking specific
'debianized' questions on the list and read/learn more about the kernel.
any distro is only as good as you make it bubba...there is no other way.
p.s. i use mandrake, debian, and freebsd...not in a 'production' or ISP
environment...i am however willing to bet money that any of them would do the
trick simply because i'm more than willing to invest some serious brainpower
into them.
good luck and good fortune with your company...
-jeff
