Which Linux for Professional Admins?

Posted by Cliff on Monday January 31, 2005 @10:00AM from the best-for-the-enterprise dept.

LazloToth asks: "Short and sweet: with so many distributions of Linux to choose from, and so many of them good to excellent, which Linux delivers the best balance of stability, high-level support options, security, rapid updates, and ease of administration? If an admin wants to standardize on one Linux distribution and have the best of all worlds on everything from file-and-print servers to database boxes, what, in the experience of the Slashdot pros, is that Holy Grail of Linuxes - - the one that does it all while also making upper management feel warm and fuzzy?"

If you are a real admin, you will just use FreeBSD and not mess with complications of using Linux.
