Best Linux/Unix for server?

(1/1)

batteredmidget:
I'm building a server and would like reccomendations as to best OS. I'm currently leaning towards freeBSD.

Laukev7:
I would recommend FreeBSD. It's easy to administer, and it's very stable. If you look at the highest average uptimes on netcraft, you'll see how stable both FreeBSD and BSD/OS are.

If you are paranoid about security, I might recommend you OpenBSD.

If you want a system very easy to administer, I would definitely recommend Mac OS X server.

I am currently building a Apache server on FreeBSD, with Sime's help (for which I am very grateful).

TheQuirk:
Netcraft is unimportant. Linux, for example, overwrites its uptime when it gets to ~500.

Just saying.
