I have acquired a Sun Fire VL 240. I know there is not a SPARC version of CentOS.

Can anyone recommend a good OS for a machine that will do apache, postfix, mysql, etc.

NetBSD?

Don't know if NetBSD is supported on this machine, but I had it running on a (peeceeish) Ultra 5/440MHz UltraSPARC IIi. It was blazingly fast, absolutely awesome. The fastest OS I ever installed on it (there was GNU/Linux, Solaris 9 of course, and OpenBSD). Back then, there was no OpenSolaris existing.

Have fun!
