No :). 95 *is* broken :). We have a mix of Win98 (two systems, for some stubborn legacy software), Slackware 12, Win2K Pro, 2K Server, 2K Advanced Server, 2003 Server Enterprise, and XP Pro. I don't believe we have a Vista system anywhere yet. 99% of our workstation/desktops need Windows for either development or artsy tools. We have a couple odd Windows based servers for some Windows software we have to communicate with in the field (gotta have local testing!). Anything that handles a 'server' aspect in house is Slack. 3 or 4 years ago, I used to Slack + vmware... but... that was clumsy at best. For the next distro on remote servers, CentOS will definitely be my choice (being most similar to existing layout). Here in house, I might switch over to it as well during next upgrade bunch... just so that there's a cohesive layout between field and in house systems. I've just been a die hard Slack fan for about 12 years, and it's hard to let go hehehe :). I've had some flexibility in that I'm the only linux-admin in house... but... that needs to change soon, I've got too many responsibilities. CentOS seems like a perfect and natural progression. It's been a breeze to administer remotely in a non-work environment, and breeds familiarity with the RH9 servers. -Will -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
