Hi Everyone - I'm going to put together my first Linux server, for testing purposes now but possibly more later. I currently host and manage 10 Windows 2003 servers, so Windows is my "thing". Linux, on the other hand, is not.
I've looked at the various distros out there and am not sure which would be the best one for me to start out with. My plan at this point is only to run the server as a web box, so I will want Apache, MySQL, and PHP enabled right away. Later, possibly RoR. And even later, I might possibly incorporate Linux servers into our network. I've done a fair amount of searching on Google, and there is plenty of information - but it is all different ("use this", "do that", etc). I have downloaded the latest versions of Fedora, Ubuntu, and now openSUSE. Now I just need to figure out which one I'm going with. Based on past experiences, if anyone has any suggestions on how to get started, I would appreciate it! Thanks!
