I was told that it would have the exact same package set as RHEL WS, which in it's last incarnation seemed to be missing quite a bit of stuff. There has already been one case of marketing jumping the gun on website content, so I don't even trust www.redhat.com anymore for information. I'll reserve my opinion on the validity of RHPWS as a server OS until it's actually released and I can get a package list from the CDs. If we look at the website, here is what it lists so far as being not available in RHELWS: amanda-server, arptables_jf, bind, caching-nameserver, dhcp, freeradius, inews, inn, krb5-server, netdump-server, openldap-servers, pxe, quagga, radvd, rarpd, redhat-config-bind, redhat-config-netboot, tftp-server, tux, vsftpd, ypserv I see 7 packages in that list that would keep it from being deployed as a server in my data closet. -- Jesse Keating RHCE MCSE (geek.j2solutions.net) Fedora Legacy Team (www.fedora.us/wiki/FedoraLegacy) Mondo DevTeam (www.mondorescue.org) GPG Public Key (geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub) Was I helpful?
