I agree with Brian, recent and future CentOS is not Grampaw's CentOS any more. AIUI it has been integrated into Red Hat's dev process, and now is more of a "pre-branding" release candidate for RHEL than an RHEL with the serial numbers filed off. I have nothing against Rocky Linux, and there is at least one active contributor in TLUG so community support for you personally and your organization through you may be better than alternatives (in the unlikely event that you need OS-level support for any of the RHEL alternatives). But I will mention that my employer recommends and offers commercial support for Alma Linux, and I can testify that they're well-documented. So it's a quality product too. I would still say Rocky, all else equal, on Brian's recommendation. I do not work on the accounts where we use Alma Linux yet. (I personally am a Debian person, have been since it was Deb *and* Ian, not a portmanteau, but that's a whole set of new tools. Why do that to yourself?) Steve
