Currently I'm in process of migrating from Fedora server installs to CentOS installations. I want to use more standard enterprise frameworks rather than something which seems to have a more rapid release/depreciation cycle for now. I've used OpenBSD and FreeBSD in the past to host servers but as they are the management of daemons needs a bit more work. I've got a couple of Ubuntu server installs here on my virtualized server farm but I hardly use those for anything more than teaching Linux to others remotely. At least I know if they mess anything up it won't affect my servers as they are since it is running on this workstation.

yeah i get the whole pruning thing, it used to be when they did that your post count would go backwards, i wonder how many post some would have if that never happened

i would like to see more linux discussion, there are so many distro's and flavors it's hard to keep up with them all.
i was trying different ones for my home server because i would really like to go back to using linux instead of BSD but i just could not find one that had the packages and ease of use as FreeNAS has.

The threads still exist. Just use the search to find them. There are even threads from the previous version of the forum you can find through that also.

default display is 30 days. The forum should still have the posts older than that. Should be an option near the bottom of your screen.

I have several notes I need to refer back to on here sometime soon, so I hope the threads still exist:P

I agree with scaryone. It's the least visited section. There's only 100 Topics and 849 Posts total. Multi-Monitor Discussion is the runner up with 117 Topics and 1581 Posts. Crunching@EVGA is only a couple months old and has 171 Topics and 3960 Posts.

Windows pwns for gaming. A lot of the Distributed Computing Folding@home guys use Linux but only because it folds better than Windows, is very reliable and of course it's free! They have copy & paste instructions for everything and they resolve problems in their section of the forum.

I'm still running Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop and Server. They've been around for a while and run great so there's not much to discuss. I'm looking forward to 12.04 LTS Precise Pangolin in a couple months & I would like to see more dicussions.

There isn't much activity here and the forum auto prunes after a certain date I think.

Not a lot of discussion here as there are forums specific to each distro out there and the information is readily available.

Also I think a lot here have more experience with the Windows OS than specific GNU/Linux distributions. There are quite a few of us that do but generally I don't frequent here a lot these days.
