I see your RH8 in a VM and raise a RH7.2 in a VM. :-) For an Internet facing service, nonetheless!

It has been running perfectly for years, with only 128MiB virtual RAM. -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
