Hi, Gary.
Sorry I was away for a bit. The "Holy War" comment was a complete joke.
But, the second part of my question wasn't; can you address the cost of RHEL and/or support from RH. If I can get some of that free, I'd take another serious look at RHEL for my work.
Thanks again...
Kurt.

Hi all,

The essence is that LINUX is a great platform for Firebird, and which distro you use is not really ( well hopefully not ) the point. So much depends upon what you are already used to, and what support you have ready access to. For me it was friends and colleagues who took the time to help me through the process of exiting the cult of MS Windows. <g> At that time for me it was Red Hat, so that has been my comfort zone. We all have them!!
kind regards
