Apache Web Server
The Apache Project is a collaborative software development effort aimed at creating a freely available source code implementation of an HTTP (Web) server. Apache Web Server software is widely used by Web server domains. The Apache server is well suited for e-commerce applications, where security and stability are key system requirements.
Red Hat TUX Web Server
TUX is a kernel-based web server licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). The TUX Web server serves static web pages, and can do so very efficiently from within the Linux kernel. The TUX Web Server is ideal for development environments, where performance and system response are critical.
Sendmail Switch
The Sendmail Internet mail platform is for Internet mail routing and hosting – drives most of the Internet's mail servers.
Samba
Samba is an open-source implementation of Microsoft's Server Message Block protocol that facilitates file sharing between Unix or Linux systems and Windows clients and servers. Samba provides the necessary services to transparently integrate Unix-based systems into NT domain-based environments. By using Samba, administrators can insert Linux machines into Microsoft networking environments to provide added functionality.
Other features of version 7.2 of Red Hat Linux include the following:
USB support for “hot-pluggable” or removable devices such as CD-ROM drives, zip drives, cameras, printers, scanners, and many other peripherals.
Improved network performance on multiprocessor systems
New configuration tools for BIND and Apache
More support options, including installation support designed to significantly ease the installation process
A feature comparison between Red Hat Linux versions 7.1 and 7.2 is shown in Table 1.
