Does anyone know if too many hosts can be put up on a single windows server. Would it be as stable as it was with a few hosts? ... any views on this?

Hey,
I will vote for Linux servers. Linux servers are more user friendly. |

Hello All..
In general, the difference is that open-source code is available to anyone whereas closed-source means the creator of the application keeps the source to himself. For example, the source code of Linux is available at kernel.org/, but you can't get the source code of Windows anywhere (if you can, it'll be against the law). If there is something you want to change about a program, then you would typically tell the author about it and maybe he will then make those changes. But with open-source, you also have the option to download the source code, make your changes to it, recompile it and use it straight away. After that you may want to send those changes back to the author. If he thinks it's something useful, then your code could be used in the next official version of the software. |
