There are Ubuntu versions that don't promise support (e.g. - ongoing bug & security fixes, and such) for nearly as long as one might like. The sorts of distributions that do promise such things for longer include: - Red Hat RHAS and such; - OpenSuSE; - CentOS; - Debian You'll find people that are fans of each of these. Not knowing any particular basis to infer your preferences (and you mayn't be aware of such, either!), it's tough to give any strong suggestions. I don't think you'd be steered woefully wrong with any of them. -- "I have traveled the length and breadth of this country and talked with the best people, and can assure you that data processing is a fad that won't last out the year". -- Business books editor, Prentice Hall 1957 -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
