Unfortunately, SuSE 7.3 is still the latest and greatest SuSE for sparc. I
recently switched to Aurora Linux which is an adaptation of RedHat 7.3.
Aurora Linux is also working on Corona, a more recent RedHat version. Given
its links to Fedora and the active involvement of at least one RedHat
employee, Aurora Linux is not a "dead end" distribution.

I switched my home server/firewall to Aurora and have been fairly satisfied.
It also seems to work on both sparc32 and 64.

Hi list,

I have been tasked with looking after a few sun boxes.
I would like to reinstall and use linux instead as the security on these
machines is perhaps not as it should be.

Is SUSE-Sparc 7.3 still the lastest and greatest for these machines?
What sort of problems can I expect during install and running them as
web/mail servers?

Any suggestings, RTFM's (provided you show me where) etc are welcome.

Thanks in Advance,
-Rob
