I'm faced with updating a server that is running Fedora Core 2 right now <cringe>. This was discussed in earlier postings and I was strongly advised not to use Fedora releases for internet-exposed servers. My plan is to use CentOS 5. The very reason for using it is the stability of the release. You won't find "bleeding edge" in either RHEL or CentOS.
