I am on the linux list, and I run my server on RH7.1 (2.4 kernel) and I have had maybe 2 crashes since 1.3, and probably a dozen since 1.1. Most of these were freak things, admin mod etc.
So yeah, the linux version is more stable, but I don't know if that is a result of the program, or the OS. Regardless of this OS war, would anyone seriously like to get a newbie linux (maybe focusing on HLDS/simple servers such as apache/mysql/php stuff) list going? -Chuck Hays On Tue, 2001-10-16 at 16:32, HL Server wrote: > At 02:06 PM 10/16/2001 -0700, you wrote: > >Well, I don't know about other peoples, but even through the last 2 > >updates, my hlds linux server hasn't dumped once.
