What I was suggesting was that "updates frequently" (whatever term you would like) isn't what's needed in most cases for *servers*. For a *server*, I don't want to apply updates every few days-- sometimes needing a reboot. I'm not bashing Fedora (nor trying to pick a fight with folks who have "redhat.com" on the right side of their email address)-- but I do believe it is correct to say that Fedora is a very fast-paced environment with relatively short-lived releases. If you only wish to reload the OS on your servers every couple years, then (IMHO) Fedora is a poor choice-- RHEL/CentOS would be a much better choice because of the "long-term-supported distro[s]". --- Cris -- Cristopher J.
