Wow, thank you so much. With more posts like this, the/. effect is sure to be a thing of the past!

Why was that modded offtopic?! You've got to credit this poster for understanding the *real* reason why 99.99999999% of submissions get rejected, which is to fulfil/.'s role as a geek center and increase the level of geek procreation.:-)
Wow,
is this the first 'SCO' post with negative mods? Currently the parent score is:
50% Offtopic
50% Funny
Is this a turning point for SCO posts?!?
Will SCO continue to guarentee funny mods, or will it begin to generate offtopic, troll, and overrated?!? Stay tuned boys and girls for the next episode of Slashdot!
Actually I'm interested in SCO too. Having had the misfortune being an admin for a SCO system for 2 months (before we switched to Linux) I wonder if anyone seriously would use SCO as a webserver. If s o I'd really like to hear about their experiences =P
Exactly. I personally haven't used SCO OS's too much, well not as a sysadmin at least, and I'd like to hear about people who have.
But I don't think we should talk about it, because apparently Slashdot administrators find it "Offtopic."

At my work, we've got two kernel revs: the one that works well for our service, and theone Oracle deems necessary.
The one used for non-Oracle machines performs FAR better than the Oracle kernel, and is a patched -ac kernel. The Oracle kernel is RHAS2.1, soon to be RH Enterprise. It routinely runs out of swap (on a 4G machine!), and has relatively bad NFS performance.
So, now you do know of a real Linux production server set that uses patched kernels. However, it's not a big admin nightmare, as we pick a stable patch set and use it for quite a while, 6 months or so now.
