    Hi to all members of this list,

    I'm not new to linux and I'm searching a good stable distro for
    server. Many said CentOS and other Debian but really I have not
    enough experiences to choose one.

    So, I know this is a debian list and could be obtain biased
    opinion but what are better point to use debian on a server
    instead of CentOS?

    Thanks in advance.

    Main difference between Debian and CentOS distros is package
    management system. I prefer APT and DEB packages because it is
    more intuitive, easier to check and control.
    Also Debian is more conservative with it's slower-than-others
    release cycle, which ensures more stability.

    It really depends on what your server will.. uh serve, because you
    will have to install additional software and that software could
    have various dependencies, which have to be installed too and also
    have supported versions.
    I hope this makes some sense.

Alessandro,
Could you you please tell us more about your "use case"?

The more we know, the likelier we are to be able to give an opinion on which way to go.

Hi,

I need to run a samba server acting as a nas, a backup server (bacula), apache + tomcat, nagios, postgres dbms and probably in future things like container (docker vs podman?), glusterfs and some linux-ha.
I like also run on my workstation the same distro that my server will run.

Thank you in advance.
