I will be offering web hosting, ftp drop box hosting, and e-mail services. I am trying to determine if I should use FreeBSD or Linux. I will be maintaining the server from a remote location, and it is imoportant that the server be rock solid in terms of it's ability to remain up and running. I have about 15 years of programming and maintenance experience in the pc area (novell, etc.). Any advise on this matter would be appreciated. Thanks, Charles Peters cpeters@scsn.net Charles A. Peters Have A Nice Day! ;)
