hi superman,
how did you install your OS? security, in most cases, is not
os-specific. it's more of administration-specific, more
environmental. if you have a good administration of your
machines, security won't be a problem.
it's true that redhat is very easy to install. operating

Not all updates/patches are for security. Most are for bug-fixe

You won't get any argument from me.
Comparing the number of security advisories just isn't useful, for
several reasons: (1) Not all vulnerabilities are exploitable. Some are
highly theoretical, in fact. (2)
i meant 'wouldnt' and not would. funny how you missed a word or two and
it changed the meaning of what you said. no disrespect meant to debian
users.
ciao!

now that last comment definitely constitutes a flame-bait. GNU/Linux
software loosely belongs to the 'alpha' software category and they are
constantly changing and evolving. as have been previously mentioned a
countless of times, a distro is a collection of software projects. if

1. Reduce the number of network services you run to a minimum.
2. Choose carefully what network-daemon software you run. Smaller,

possible try installing

you can use ipchains (2.2.x) or iptables (2.4.x) and portsentry for port sensor.

Good day to all!
For the past years I have been using REDHAT distro on my servers.
