If you chose anything else, you don't have support. Those two distributions are supported, stable, solid and boring as heck. Mandrake isn't boring, but I'd advise against putting production database on it. Generally speaking, I would never do in production many things that I gladly do on my own machine. -- Mladen Gogala Oracle DBA ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@freelists.org put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at http://www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at http://www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
