[Freeswitch-users] Prefered Linux Distro to run FS on

[Pablo Hernan Saro]

Hi guys,

I'm using Bluewhite64 for my Linux Servers. No problems compiling and
using FS, but not funny if you have dependencies problems (no yum or
aptitude available to solve your problems). Really stable and secure
Linux 64 bit distribution. Obviously, as the system administrator, you
have to take care of keeping the system up to date with security
patches and proper configurations.
Regards

Pablo
