In comparing CentOS to RedHat releases, it seems to me CentOS is the
Desktop/Workstation class distro from RedHat. Does the CentOS

something? Granted, most any operating system can act as a server,
but there are some fundamental components of a server-class OS that
help is stand out versus a workstation version....
I have been working on installing RHEL5 64-bit Server on a machine,
and thought about CentOS instead, but when I realized there was only
one CentOS distro, figuring it was desktop-oriented, I opted out.
There are some elements of RHEL5 server I need.
what 'elements' are those? AFAIK, the only thing in RHEL thats not
in CentOS are a few binary-only wireless drivers which aren't open
source and require onerous licensing that the centos group doesn't want
to deal with. As others have answered already, CentOS5 has all the
components of all the RHEL variants and no artifiicial multi-processor
restrictions
