A recent experiment by 2 Florida researchers shows that Windows Server 2003 is actually more secure than Linux. Amazing, I must say, but I'm not sure this article is completely valid. Red Hat Linux was used. I think better results could have been achieved if something like Fedora was tested. And since we all hate* Windows ( :happy: well everything but Windows 2K Pro), we should turn around and congratulate Mr. Bill Gates. :whistle:

This topic and that article is just sad. Linux is more secure then Windows. Period.
Will thats only Red-Hat and Windows Server 2003, what about the rest. At least something is more secure then Linux
Yes, correct. It is only for a web server.
And to KoolDrew, yes I know the article is sad, but perhaps for web servers, it might be true. Not sure. As I said, it does not necessarily have to be true, it's just something interesting I found on the net.

I still believe that 2000 is more secure than XP, excluding SP2. The only major advanced XP has is SP2, which initally had a lot of problems, but no all fixed up.

The only thing I don't like about SP2 is that it is harder to put the recovery consil on the hard drive...
And for KoolDrew's sake, the old features were improved as well is XP.
