Some people have certain OS paradigms where they function best and are able to solve problems better than another system. For other people it might be a completely 'brainjam' type thing [sort of like when people try using my tools and find many of them are left-handed.. things look the same but they don't work 'correctly' for some reason.] but if you find the tool you work best in for an enterprise and your customers are happy so be it.> Cheers, > > Niki > > -- > Microlinux - Solutions informatiques durables > 7, place de l'?glise - 30730 Montpezat > Site : https://www.microlinux.fr > Blog : https://blog.microlinux.fr > Mail : info at microlinux.fr > T?l. : 04 66 63 10 32 > Mob. : 06 51 80 12 12 > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos >-- Stephen J Smoogen.

You can refer in most cases to the RHEL family what would make it work on all flavours. You only have to adjust the parts with the specific URLs ... Kind regards Thomas -- Linux ... enjoy the ride!
