Not using, but I've tried it in a LAMP-configuration couple of years ago. Stability seems ok, but personally I don't like the sudo this and sudo
that
and sudo everywhere. Besides, it felt somehow clunky. CentOS seemed slim, slick and fast compared at the time, so CentOS is what I got stuck with
(in
an endearing sense of course).
HTH.
Hi Sorin
You can "sudo bash" and you will have a root terminal. In it, you can set the root password for root.
Yupp, as I said, at the time I was testing Ubuntu, I was rather green and didn't know about those little tricks. Now is a another matter, but I still prefer CentOS. Besides, opening a terminal and typing in "su -" is way faster. Saves keystrokes. And I can't believe I just write that...! I sound like a linux die-hard...
Just try Solaris or FreeBSD then. That should make you a Linux die-hard. :-D
