<html>I have been trying out AlmaLinux. Given, it is still in beta but from my initial testing it seems to run as a drop-in replacement for CentOS 8.<br />I am not that sure about Fedora, since it is a running distribution having bleeding edge versions of the software components.<br />So from the looks of it, I will be shifting my own deployments from CentOS7/8 to AlmaLinux<br /><br />On Onsdag, Februar 17, 2021 03:46 CET, Paul Scott <sales@edenusa.com> wrote:<br /> <blockquote type="cite" cite="BY5PR10MB435323F52883CD5A9FBF52F7B0869@BY5PR10MB4353.namprd10.prod.outlook.com">Just an FYI. I just got through downloading and installing Fedora Server 33, and it installs and runs exactly the same as CentOS 7 or 8.<br /><br />I will next try to install Sendmail and Mailscanner, along with DoveCot and then fire up several hundred domains under bind and see how things go.<br /><br />Will let you know how it all goes.
