Hi! |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I have just installed Gentoo on my laptop and I am very satisfied with |
| 4 |
it! I really like the portage feature and other Gentoo philosophy. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
At home and at "week-end house" I have a Linux server with Slackware |
| 7 |
distribution installed. Now I am thinking of reinstalling my servers and |
| 8 |
installing the Gentoo Linux on them, but I am a bit worried |
| 9 |
because all packages in Portage tree are NOT up-to-date. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
I am using servers for: Mail-server, web-server, printer-share, |
| 12 |
firewall, router, backup-server, webmail, mysql etc. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
I would like to know, how do you maintain your servers? Is it safe to |
| 15 |
have Gantoo as a server? |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
What do you think of putting all installed packages into |
| 18 |
/etc/portage/packages.keywords (~x86) for server? |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
I would like to make my Linux server "insensitive" for hackers or |
| 21 |
intruders. Is it possible with Gentoo? |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
I will be very gratefull to hear some of your opinion or exepriences. |
| 24 |
|

Thanks in advance! |
