Mr Szulik,
what would you say to those users who have been running RedHat Linux with applications that require [and only work on] RedHat?
i got caught in the situation, where one of my servers RH7.3 with a paid RHN subscription is running Plesk Server Administrator, which require RH and doesn't support RHEL except in the latest release which would cost me over $600 USD to upgrade to.
now i have one of two options..
either migrate to RHEL, and upgrade Plesk, which would cost me a big amount of money, not to mention the hassle of rebuilding the entire server from scratch..
or stop using both plesk and redhat as plesk doesn't support any other distribution ( it depends on RH due to the filesystem paths and other factors such as the way RH handles the network subsystem )
you might say Fedora is an option.. but with a 3-4 months life time.. i don't think so!
