As much as I love Fedora, and on SPARC, and use it myself, if you're looking for something that is more 'supported' I would suggest Debian. I'm not sure how much longer that will be the case, however. If it being a Linux distribution is not a hard requirement, then NetBSD and OpenBSD are both available for SPARC and SPARC64 and are both solid performers. I have used Aurora of several versions in production, as well as using SuSE 7.3 SPARC several years back, and I am using the F12 beta for SPARC on a couple of boxes now, but if you need a degree of support, well, SPARC is a secondary arch for Fedora, and even though Dennis is giving it a good run it is still a Secondary and not primary supported architecture. But for a production box with high visibility (as a VoIP server would be) you may be better served by Debian or OpenBSD; it depends on how stuck on using Fedora or a fedora-ish Linux you are. Or how stuck on using SPARC you are: your call. _______________________________________________ sparc mailing list sparc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/sparc
