That's how it used to be, back when RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and CentOS were equal peers on the Software Development Lifecycle River. The "upstream" distro was Fedora, all the newest, most bleeding edge stuff. You could get and install CentOS and be (virtually) Bug-For-Bug compatible with RHEL Proper. All was right in the world, but this wasn't making a cent for RedHat. Why buy the cow, when I can get the milk for free?! Then RedHat "killed" CentOS by moving it "Upstream" next to Fedora. No Enterprise company would ever run that in production, EVER ... and that was the point. Most large enterprises migrated their production CentOS over to RHEL proper and started paying several hundred thousand a year for that privilege. Speaking from first hand experience, the Arizona power company APS -- we pay just under a MILLION dollars a year for JUST the Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) ... That's not counting all the actual RedHat VMs we use, or RedHat Satellite. We're probably into RedHat for 3-5 million, all in, every year. But back to David's point. Ubuntu Server does have market share, albeit drastically smaller, but does exist. --- Thanks, Alexander Sent from my Google Pixel 7 Pro On Thu, Dec 5, 2024, 13:37 David Schwartz via PLUG-discuss < plug-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org> wrote: > Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but my imprssion is that Ubuntu is > mainly for desktop use, while CentOS is used by a vast number of commercial > hosting companies for their hosting machines. > > Also, CentOS is basically a pre-configured Red Hat distro, while Ubuntu is > GUI-oriented Debian distro. > > -David Schwartz > > > > > > On Dec 5, 2024, at 11:42 AM, Keith Smith via PLUG-discuss < > plug-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org> wrote: > > > > Asked AI about configuring a Vhost oh RedHat and it wants Apache to be > the docroot owner.
