In comparing CentOS to RedHat releases, it seems to me CentOS is the Desktop/Workstation class distro from RedHat. Does the CentOS project then not have a Server class distro, or am I missing something? Granted, most any operating system can act as a server, but there are some fundamental components of a server-class OS that help is stand out versus a workstation version.
not quite true.
the CentOS-5 distro combines all the various RHEL products into 1 distro, so you get Server, Workstation, Client, Virtualisation Cluster, ClusterStorage all rolled into 1 distro with options at install time as to what all features you would like to install with. And post install the yum package manager to help maintain, add, remove and manage packages.
