I'm back (http://forums.scotsnewsletter.com/index.php?showtopic=59742entry365001). This morning the CentOS5.8 rebooted itself for reasons unknown. Worse , it would not boot, got an error of File 15 file does not exist. Booted up with a LiveCD , mounted sda1 to /mnt/custom and sure enough: root@sysresccd /mnt/custom % ls -lR .: total 95 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Jan 9 09:38 grub drwx------ 2 root root 12288 May 17 2010 lost+found -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 80032 Mar 16 2009 message ./grub: total 257 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 63 May 17 2010 device.map -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7584 May 17 2010 e2fs_stage1_5 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7456 May 17 2010 fat_stage1_5 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6720 May 17 2010 ffs_stage1_5 -rw------- 1 root root 713 Dec 21 01:30 grub.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6720 May 17 2010 iso9660_stage1_5 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8224 May 17 2010 jfs_stage1_5 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 May 17 2010 menu.lst -> ./grub.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6880 May 17 2010 minix_stage1_5 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9248 May 17 2010 reiserfs_stage1_5 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 55808 Mar 16 2009 splash.xpm.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 512 May 17 2010 stage1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 104988 May 17 2010 stage2 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7072 May 17 2010 ufs2_stage1_5 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6272 May 17 2010 vstafs_stage1_5 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8872 May 17 2010 xfs_stage1_5 ./lost+found: total 0 root@sysresccd /mnt/custom/grub % cat grub.conf # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition.

out with the CentOS. It is no longer worth the price. It is not just that somehow it totally munged itself up in 5.8, the community is close to kaput. Very little action on the forums. Is RHEnterprise still $400 ? At this stage it would be worth it I think. Fedora is too unstable and too quick in going out of support. For my purposes (see my other Linux posts from this month) I'm really thinking about OpenSuse . Or maybe just take the Zentyal route - anyone here use it? Open to other suggestions to Linux server that can play nicely in a msWindows LAN and even be the DomainController for said LAN which runs a mix of XP and W7 (with some NT thrown in)
