I most certainly would reccomend AGAINST using mysql 4.x unless your app has a long development time to give mysql 4.x time to stabilize(I would not use it for probably at least a year). It still isn't "final" according to mysql.com. And even after it is I would not deploy it immediately. Though I am very cautious as to what I deploy on my network, e.g. I only started re-evaluating the 2.4.x kernel for deployment 3 months ago. The type app you describe seems like a common app for mysql. never used yahoo groups myself but it sounds like some sort of discussion system. I'd reccomend looking at what others are using for such a system, perhaps even contact authors/mailing lists of projects directly for their experiences. a site that seems to list quite a few: http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Discussion_Boards/ that said I haven't personally used postgres for anything yet, all of my apps seem to tie well into mysql, all are very low utilization, and I've never had any problems. The developers at the company I last worked at used postgres for license reasons and I heard them curse about it on more then one occasion, but I think much of the complaints was running postgres on 'odd' platforms like HPUX 10.x and AIX 4.2 and real early versions of solaris ..(e.g 2.5), more then the app itself. oddly enough all internal development(stuff that wasn't sold to customers) was done on mysql(mostly website related stuff). nate -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
