I have a choice between the two OS's for my new VPS, which should I choose? And does anyone have any good sites that compare the two to help me make up my mind?
If you ask me, Fedora is the System of choice... I've been using it for 8+ years now and still prefer it over any other There is probably a reason, why most Providers use RedHat/Fedora too
by the way: Fedora offers an extremely easy way to upgrade to the next version - afaik there is no such thing in SuSE.
In Fedora you just download/install the upgraded Package-Info with
> rpm -iH ftp://<whatever>
and then enter
> yum upgrade
That's it. Your Server will then download everything it needs for the new Version and you can then reboot it at any time and have a fully upgraded system.
Also with "yum update" you can check at any time for the most actual versions of all programs on your system and it will automatically download and upgdate everything.
Well im not really that confident with that sort of side of things. I'm fine with windows servers and all the DNS etc, but havn't really strayed into Linux based solutions until now
