Windows 2003 serverComment

FreeBSD First,
Linux second,
wouldn't waste my time on windows for server applications. 2 reasons, first cost and second security.
Also think about it, both freebsd and linux have hundreds of programmers looking at the source code offering their improvments. Even microsoft can't match that.Somebody stole my damn signture...Comment

freebsd won't you down. Solaris, redhat servers are all fine if you can secure it properly. Just don't go with a windows serverComment

FreeBSD is more stable than Linux...but it's hard to manage it...
So I would go for Linux...

shit, ain't nothin cheap about those "free" systems....they are open source..which means unlike windows, there are hundreds if not thousands of people around the world that are functionally testing and making improvements to that "cheap" system on a daily basis....you CAN NOT beat proper open source productsOriginally posted by jukeboxfrankIf you have the bling win2003 server if not then some cheep ass free system.
i think anything with heavy traffic NEEDS to be on linux or freebsd, plain and simple...just my opinion thoughComment

For money making servers, almost always Red Hat Enterprise Linux for me.
Yes, freebsd is slightly faster, who gives a fuck. I care about uptime and ease of use.
With RHEL you get a vendor supported product that is updated extremely easily every day with a steady stream of the latest patches and kernels from Red Hat, all installed with one command, and ther are *many* *many* more products and services available for Linux.
You pay about $25 a month extra for RHEL, worth it a thousand times over for me.
Oh - Windows is just garbage. We spend more time trying to keep 5 windows servers running then I do about 50 Linux servers.Last edited by TheSaint; 03-10-2005, 09:16 AM.I have no signatureComment

There's simply no question here, FreeBSD makes a FAR SUPERIOR os for a web server.
And frankly, linux easier to freebsd, thats a false statement, i guess some fools got sold on that RPM garbage but its just that GARBAGE.
now that redhat is dead (now retail i guess).... youll see the king of webservers overtake the market as it once did.
Hooray!!!! More jobs for me

FreeBSD for security and stability
Windows and Linux - for a server you want hacked on a weekly basis.
It is toss up as to which server is more insecure. I would say Windows gets hacked more, but when Linux fucks up the code tree, they fuck it up real good (kernel exploits, ping gets broken, they finally fixed the max 2GB file size limit, etc etc).
Do a google search for Linux Root Kit or Linux Exploit: Results 1 - 10 of about 2,150,000
Do a google search for FreeBSD exploit: 1 - 10 of about 264,000
The Linux code base is a free for all, with little or no supervision, whereas FreeBSD is maintained by the core group that approves and disapproves all tree changes and direction of the project.
This is based upon years of experience, not wild ass assumptions.

I wouldn't quite put it that way. The bsd people are like the christian right, just the loudest. All I can can is my dozens of corporate clients all use Red Hat Enterprise Linux, freebsd has almost zero penetration in the business world - every major vendor, ibm, hp, etc have all embraced red hat. Its rock solid and worth a few bucks a month.Originally posted by tranzaIt seems that FreeBSD won...
Freebsd has has *major* security exploits too; people slectively remember things.I have no signatureComment

Nothing beats FreeBSD's uptime and reliability for production servers.
Linux is a toy, always has been, always will be. It was designed as a hack by a geek, always will be that, a hack.Comment

Depending what you are looking , if you are looking for asp you must go with Windows but you will have to pay the license fee . If you are looking for free things , you must go with UNIX.
And remember that cpanel just works with some linux versions and windows is just unstable.Comment
