[lug] Religious Question - Linux versus Solaris

[Gordon Golding]

>>>Two Relion 240's from Penguin Computing, running RH ES3.  About 27
client RH AS3 systems, one E450 running Solaris 8, 4 other Sun Ultras
running Solaris 8, about 15 Windows boxes.  Two Class C subnets, 80
users or so, a couple Terabytes of project space. a couple other odds
and end servers.

Why some servers on Redhat, some on Solaris?  I'm interested in how people decide on the mixing of them.

At UMS (CU Boulder), the comment was - big mission critical; pay for the support and have everything Sun.  Small, not mission critical, get a free OS...
