I have a project that I need to deploy on the web. It was up and running as a prototype a few years ago on the current RedHat version of that time. I had professional help on the Linux end at that time. I want to deploy it with a current Linux or BSD version in the next couple of days.
I should have it up and running on my "windows" laptop with netbeans version 4.1 and mysql version 5 shortly. I'm stumbling through that now but I expect to have the prototype working again on my laptop in a few hours. I will make a few changes and then be ready to deploy it to the web, but not on a windows platform. I am looking for suggestions for which flavor of Linux to use which will be the easiest to setup both in the setup of this Java/JSP/Tomcat/MySQL app and web security. I can leave SSH off which should help a lot but I also know I need a strong iptables/iprules setup. Trying to learn the rules rules made me a little dizzy last time. Last year I talked to a guy about doing this with the current FreeBSD version at that time which I believe was 5 and he told me that binaries were not supported and I would have to compile from source etc. I don't know if that is still the case today. I would like to do this myself so the easier the better, yet I need to have good security - maybe from a cookie cutter rules file.
