Check out CentOS (http://centos.org/).  It is entirely based on RedHat
Enterprise and follows the same release cycles.  The only difference is
all of the proprietary RedHat stuff is stripped out.  In my opinion it
makes 
Cent a better OS.

Subject: [MSUNAG] Linux application server question

A quick question for anyone out there running Linux servers to manage
media files: is anyone using Flash Media Server from Macromedia/Adobe on
a Linux server?  Back when Macromedia ran the show, I believe they
supported several Linux flavors officially.  Since the Adobe buyout,
they only officially support the product on RedHat Linux, and I
personally would rather not pay for RedHat Enterprise server just to
support this applcation when I have perfectly good SUSE Linux servers up
and running now.

If anyone out there has Flash Media server running on a Linux other
than Red Hat, I would love to hear from you about any issues you've had
getting it installed and running.  Thanks for any info or web links you
are willing to share.
