Re: SuSE vs. Debian ???
hi ya
"use what the customer wants"...
- if it fails... they picked the os/hw/etc..
- its also certified that oracle db9i works on suse...
and ibm certifies their db2 works on rh-x.y
- if it does works as advertised... be happy..
- and lots of annoying habits that you have to relearn with yast/yast2
c ya
alvin
-- my rule..
- dont insist on something else unless you know it works 100%
correctly under all circumstances..
( if you do, and it dont work.. .you're in one heap of trouble )
-- there is little no difference between most distro
( no reason to pick one over another )
- same kernel
- same bash
- same glibc
- same apps
- same nfs
- same mta, httpd, loggers, sniffers, checkers,
- same blah-blah
- different installer, different logo, different "package mangers"
- different "people"... ( end users )
- more user apps..
