Sorry, your question is rather vague.
You can run anywhere from an expensive database from IBM or Oracle or you
can use an opensource solutions. Check out www.postgresql.org for
PostgreSQL. IMHO it's the best open-source DB out there. We use it on many
of our projects
By the way, what's your trouble with MS SQL? Is it only price problem? MS
SQL 7.0 and 2000 are excellent products. I've used them to build high volume
web sites with excellent results.
If your going to continue to use a MS OS, then I recommend that you move to
2000 or XP. They are much more stable than NT 4, depsite all the hype you
hear on the news.
Of course, Linux and other unix derivatives probably still have a much
longer up-time and are generally more stable and secure than the MS
platforms. At least that is what i've experienced.
Cheers

PostgreSQL is a superior Open Source SQL Server. You ca find out about it at
http://www.postgresql.org/ (choose a mirror).
Documentation at http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/
And a HOWTO for migrating from MSSQL to PostgreSQL here
http://techdocs.postgresql.org/techdocs/sqlserver2pgsql.php
Have fun,

about state of the art betwen postgres Vs mysql Vs redhat database , and if

Aropos I think MS SQL is a good product of microsoft, easy and stable, you
need just $$$ to gain it.

I'm gonna need help here, I'm not sure how to do that in Linux.
But I can set DMA for each device in my BIOS can you? Or does Linux override
that?
Does hdparm in Linux work to achieve this?
Not much help I know, but I'm really not sure.

Hi,
I just wonder if there is a log file that records who accessed
to a Linux server box, time of access, IP address, etc...
I looked into /var/log/ but couldn't find one. I appreciate
your inputs.
Thanks in advance,

/var/log/wtmp
The command "last" inspects this. Perhaps not the degree of detail you want,
but pretty good.

This is very good question are they any sql servers out there that support
stored procedures, so far mysql and postgres dont. If they we to implement
that feature and do a login auth for mssql, so many people would switch to
it because sql licenses can cost 4000GBP on a large site.
