Subject: Preferred Distribution
Hi,
I am having to setup a couple of new mailservers where I am working on
contract at the moment, using Dell SC1435 rack mounts. The problem is
that RedHat ES4 kernel is so old does not recognise the SAS RAID card.
Now my question is should I get them to purchase RHES5, or go for either
CentOS or Fedora ?
Personally I would use Gentoo or Ubuntu, but they are really *not* happy
in using either of them for a corporate system :(

At my (reasonably large multi-national) company, we've started using CentOS for all of our new machines, and will likely continue to do so. We don't need RedHat's telephone support, nor do we care to use up2date, ergo the benefits of using RedHat over CentOS are almost non-existent.
YMMV, of course - especially if you're at a smaller organisation where phone support might come in handy, or where you don't manage your own software repository.

I am tring to install Mailscanner 4.59.4-2 on Fedora 7 test 4 but
getting strange error about rpms not being installed.<br>
<br>
[root@mailex MailScanner-4.59.4-2]# ./install.sh<br>
<br>
<br>
Good. You have the patch command.<br>
<br>
Good, you have /usr/src/redhat in place.<br>
<br>
Good, unpackaged files will not break the build process.<br>
Good, far-too-clever Perl requirements will be ignored.<br>
<br>
Good, you appear to only have 1 copy of Perl installed.<br>
<br>
I think you are running on RedHat Linux, Mandriva Linux or SuSE Linux.<br>
You must have the following RPM packages installed before<br>
you try and do anything else:<br>
binutils glibc-devel egcs make<br>
You are missing at least 1 of these.<br>
Please install them all<br>
(Read the manuals if you do not know how to do this).<br>
Then come back and run this install.sh script again.<br>
<br>
Can anyone point me in the right direction I have installed all but
egcs which i can't find in a current rpm disto.<br>
has anyone else experienced any similar problems? or should I just wait
until full version comes around?<br>
<br>
TIA<br>
