[TriLUG] Whitebox vs. CentOS

[Christopher L Merrill]

I wanted to follow-up on my previous questions.

First, thanks for all the respones.  After a little googling and
reading from the two websites and various newsgroup postings, I opted
to try out CentOS.  This decision was primarily based on the size
of the community around it, which seems to be somewhat larger than
Whitebox.  Incidentally, if we had more money to spend, I would have
simply installed RHEL and been done with it.

The initial installation went very smoothly - looking and acting
just like the most recent RH I had installed (RH9).  The first usage
will be for our development server - serving for SCM, automated builds,
unit testing and a Wiki.  Sometime in the coming weeks, I'll be
installing Tomcat, Subversion, Maven and a few other Java development
tools.

If I discover any suprises, I'll be sure to post them here.

Thanks again,
Chris
