Ubuntu Server means the distribution is designed to run as a server. The type of server is up to you. It can be a file server, database server, web server, and/or more. Other distros can be used as a server as well. "Designed" for a server typically means they strip out all the usual desktop applications and window manager fluff. The machines in my rack are servers and even have apache running but not serving to the outside world.
Apache is merely the software package that allows your "server" to act as a web server. Apache does run on nearly anything including Windows! --- On Mon, 8/11/08, wes morgan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: wes morgan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [Eug-lug] servers > To: "Eugene Unix and Gnu/Linux User Group" <euglug@euglug.org> > Date: Monday, August 11, 2008, 8:45 PM > Hello: > > Is there much of a difference between Apache and Ubuntu > Server? > > > > http://www.informationweek.com/news/software/linux/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=209903275 > > _______________________________________________ > EUGLUG mailing list > euglug@euglug.org > http://www.euglug.org/mailman/listinfo/euglug _______________________________________________ EUGLUG mailing list euglug@euglug.org http://www.euglug.org/mailman/listinfo/euglug
