hi all, here's something i don't get, if anyone can clarify any part of this i'd be thankful...
btw when i say commercial linux i mean red hat enterprise server, suse linux enterprise server, mandriva whatever. although i'm mostly interested in red hat. 1 - what i don't understand is let's say you got a red hat network subscription which entitles you yearly support, patches, updates and the rest. the question is, RHEL4 includes a huge amount of software and servers, like apache, postfix, sendmail, postgresql, ... would red hat support everything and anything that happens to my installation. so lets say postgresql crashes big time and you can't bring it up, are they the people to ask or would i need a 3rd party postgresql consultant. 2- mysql is a dual license product, GPL and commercial. from what i understand, if i develop a closed source application using mysql as a backend, i'll have to get a license from MySql AB for distributing my commercial software, right? so Mysql AB would be my support if anything goes wrong in mysqld. so what happens to the red hat network subscription i have, doesn't a red hat support provide me with help in the case of a commercial software on mysql. and wouldn't having a red hat subscription entitle me of using mysql in commercial software? thanks in advance... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
