I'm thinking of deploying an IPv6-only server at our colo facility so I can get some practical experience with IPv6. I've got server hardware available for the project, so now I need to work out the remaining details.
Any recommendations for the server OS? I'm used to CentOS, so my initial thoughts are to use either CentOS 6.0 or Scientific Linux 6.1, both of which are rebuilt editions of RHEL 6.x. Would these be my best options, or would I be better off with something like FreeBSD, OpenBSD, or OpenSolaris? For what it's worth, I used to use BSD in college back in the '80's, and I worked with Solaris extensively in the '90's, but I haven't been using either of them recently. So unless they'd be a really big win over CentOS or SL, I think my more current experience would makes CentOS or SL the better choices. -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix GnuPG KeyID: 0xD5C7B5D9 / Email: abre...@gmail.com GnuPG FP: 72 FB 39 4F 3C 3B D6 5B E0 C8 5A 6E F1 2C BE 99 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
