I have been trying to compare Red Hat to SUSE Linux, and can't really come to a definitive solution. I can't seem to find anyone that uses SUSE (Well, hardly anyway), but I found out that they have over double to market share that Red Hat has so somebody is definitely using them. I also noticed that SUSE is cheaper too.
Based on your experiences, what are some of the pros / cons both ways? Who offers better product training (I wan't to get certified directly)? Who has better product support? Is AppArmor better than SELinux?
By the way, I am only looking for commercial linux distributions. Specifically companies that offer product training.
I am trying to transfer a domain from the server for Plesk 11.5 to 12 system is SUSE 13.1. After restoring the manager from within Backup getting errors:
Warning: python is not supported. It will be disabled for the following objects: xxxx.xx Warning: domain "xxxx.xx" Failed deployment of mail user bbbbb@xxxx.xx Warning: Execution of /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/api-cli/mail.php --create bbbbb@xxxx.xx -passwd '' -passwd_type sym -mailbox true -mbox_quota -1 -aliases add:bbbbb -forwarding false -ignore-nonexistent-options failed with return code 1.
Anyone out there have experience with SuSE over RedHat? RHEL is obviously the generalized Enterprise version used across most commercial hosting companies, but I'm interested in hearing about some SuSE experiences people have had.
It looks like SoftLayer offers SuSE and a couple VPS hosting companies do the same. I'm wondering how many large-scale sites are run on this operating system.
I am having trouble finding any providers that provide Opensuse on their configs. So far, the only one seems to be 1&1 and I certainly do not want to be going near them anytime soon.
Does anyone know of a reputable company that can provide Opensuse based servers?
I have a server which runs suse linux on it. Postfix is already installed on it. But, the problem is i am not able to send mail using root. I mean using mail -v command.
I could see the following in mail logs. I know 2 files main.cf and master.cf are there.
Not, sure what to change and how.

The same thing happens will Gmail also. I think outgoing mail is not working at all.

I'm working with a local startup and we are looking into potential backup solutions. We have roughly 9 servers all running some variation of susE linux (some straight susE and some X Server which runs off susE).
We are needing a backup solution that will allow us to securely get data off the servers on a regular interval. We are unable to move the data off site as we are running on a single T1 line with moderate utilization, certainly not enough BW to go off site.
OS is OpenSuse 13.1.Yast shows the installed version of Apache2 as 2.4.6-6.23.1..I created my own CA, and used that to create a server certificate. The CA crtificate (in PEM format), and the server key and certificate have been placed in the appropriate directories in /etc/apache2 (the key in ssl.key and the certificates in ssl.crt).
When I check the status, after restarting apache, I see an error claiming that socache_shmcb_module is not installed and that it is ignored. This is, of course wrong, as I included that module in /etc/sysconfig/apache2, and the appropriate LoadModule statement in the Loadmodule.conf file (with the proper full path - /usr/lib64/apache2). This error is the only error I see on the server.
I will be dropping my shared-hosting plan and ordering a small VPS as soon as I can decide on which operating sytem to use. It seems that most companies offer the following choices: Suse, Debian, Fedora and CentOS.
I freely admit that I am a full-fledged n00b when it comes to linux and will be learning as I go, the problem is I just don't know where to start because I'm not familiar with any of them. I have at least heard of Suse, Debian and Fedora before, but didn't even know this CentOS existed until yesterday... and yet, it seems to be one of the more popular choices.
So I was wondering if some of you seasoned VPS veterans here could recommend an OS, tell me what the differences are, or otherwise share any experience you might have with any of them.
My ISP service is highspeed from Comcast (speed right now not an issue), I would like to setup a domain name on the box to play around with - nothing serious yet.
I have several domain names purchased (Wildwest & Enom) and would like to use one of those on this box, or even more domains at a later day.
Gazzin.com offers so many OSs on their VPS deals - CentOS, Debian, Fedora Core 3, Fedora Core 4, Gentoo, Opensuse, Suse, Unbuntu. Which one would you advise me to start from?
I am trying to install Magento on my apache server. I am running into the dreaded mcrypt issue as Magento needs it to run. I have now been googling for the past few hours and have gotten nowhere.
Here are my details:
Linux Centos 5.5 PHP 5.3.3 x86_64 Plesk 12
I have tried installing all sorts of different repos and it just isn't working.
When I try to install using # yum install php-mcrypt I get the following:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Package php-mysql is obsoleted by php-mysqlnd, trying to install php-mysqlnd-5.5.13-3.el5.remi.x86_64 instead --> Processing Dependency: php53-gd for package: psa-php53-configurator --> Processing Dependency: php53-imap for package: psa-php53-configurator

and I was thinking of going from mpg to avi using ffmpeg. The problem is that swf to mpg ran up with an error. I was wondering if anyone know of the best way to proceed with this.
I am looking at linux vps due to money constraints. Ive had lots of experience with windows vps... its really simple, just use remote desktop .
Is there something similar for linux vps? Giving me a desktop like environment to mess around in? How does that work? Is there a tutorial on how to use one, transfer files, etc.
im talking about using windows XP to community to a linux vps.
To make ASP run under Linux, PHP script files are saved as ASP extensions and are redirected to the PHP interpreter. So it looks like the server serves ASP files, but these are actually PHP scripts.
Can anyone recommend a decent VPS place, need atleast decent ram for apache, mysql, xcache, php, 200 - 400 BW, for hosting about 2 websites. (need them on a separate machine from my others). Good connectivity matters since our users will be mainly from all over euorpe, USA and Russia and former Russian region.
I have Debian Etch 4.0 and am intending to run a LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP) installation on Debian.
I have setup AMP on windows boxes to run successfully. I have very good microsoft O/S skills but have vague skills around Linux which I need to learn quickly for my job. First of all I need to setup a LAMP installation so does anyone have a recommendation of a simple and easy LAMP installation step-by-step solution for me?
I have a dedicated Linux server with CentOS and Directadmin.
How do I get ASP.net on a Linux server, I only could find one that seems something about it, but I cant seem to understand how that will work, and how to install it YEP thats how smart I am.
I have recently purchased a GoDaddy Virtual Server running Fedora 7, with the Plesk Control Panel 8.3 installed - if I had remembered this site then I probably wouldn't have chosed GoDaddy, however my colleague runs a GoDaddy server and it works like a dream. I have only one domain on the site, running Boonex Dolphin 6.1. The site however runs EXCEPTIONALLY slow.
I have spoken with many friends that use Dolphin and they have no major issues. I also did a search on Google and found that there appear to be no major speed issues with Dolphin.
The site I am running is http://www.tkd-web.com
I wondered if some of you guys could take a look and let me know if it looks like a hosting issue or a scripting issue. Or what information do you need to know to find out the answer to this problem.
I would be really grateful to anyone that can even point me in the right direction, as I don't want to go off and start shouting the odds about GoDaddy etc, I just want to find the most effective solution to my issue.
