Ah yes, that old chestnut. We also prefer that our internal customers run RHEL because the added stability gives us less headaches, however we have an almost identically configured Fedora 10 install they can request if they wish. We insist that publically available machines (teaching clusters for example) run RHEL. Internally all our servers run RHEL or Solaris, but that's not considered a barrier to offering something different on the desktop. About 10 out of 900 desktops are using Fedora I think, last time I checked the stats. However all the "enhancements" I did to our RHEL install to support laptops (disable network logins, set local accounts and passwords, enable NetworkManager, preset WiFi and VPN etc.) haven't been ported to our Fedora install - that's remarkably effective in keeping those pesky laptop users away from my pretty pretty Fedora ;o) -- Sam _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
