RE: what makes linux so secure?

I use both Linux and Windows servers, based on application and resource needs. It sounds like you're using the box as a web server, so should evaluate your web development and publishing needs. Do you want to use .NET and MSSQL or do you want to go with Apache, PHP, and MySQL? Actually, you c
