[Mapserver-users] Suse 9.1 Linux a good Choice for Mapserver?

[Stephen Woodbridge]

I have been running Debian on my systems at home with goo results after 
moving there from Redhat 6.2 and 8. I haven't tried PostgreSQL/PostGIS 
yet, but the systems are easy to setup and suuport from the point of 
view of packages and security update.

We also use Debian on all of our servers at work, many of which are 
running mapserver also.
