Centos8 with DirectAdmin

[pixGT]

I decided to install Centos Version 8 for DirectAdmin. Is it a good idea?

Is it free ? or Do I need to pay for a license?

 

[Ohm J]

yes, It's free, it's just Fork from Centos 8,

Sounds good!

For future onlookers to this thread: I would definitely suggest going with something other than CentOS 8, given that it's end of life later this year. Whilst there is always the opportunity to convert, we all want an easy life and so it's best to start with something that has an EOL far in the future, like CentOS 7 (2024).

Is it a good idea?

no, just to concur.

anything other than 8
Alma
Debian
centos7
FreeBSD

Also I thing there is a conversion script to go from Centos to Alma. Not totally sure though.
