Using fedora for servers means upgrading them more often than you may want.

If you want that much Fedora stuff, then just use Fedora. I use Fedora
10 and 11 on several server systems and do not have any issues with that
setup. One server has been Fedora since Core 5 I think. Upgrading takes
about an hour for downloading/updating and checking config files, but I
only do that once a year. Regular updates happen about once a month
after hours when I can reboot the machines.

*Since you have several Fedora servers up and running, may I ask if there
was a howto that you followed or did it all come from you?  If you, then
would you be willing to write-up a HOWTO for those of us out there that do
not understand it all or as much as you may or may not???**

Sincerely yours,
Rob G. Healey*


However, it depends on your particular situation in the end.
