Under a low performance server, Debian 6 would work best since it's a very lightweight Linux OS. Also, Scientific Linux has been on the rise, it's a lightweight version of CentOS. For user friendliness, I would recommend CentOS 6 or 5.7(Final); or even Ubuntu. Of course it's a bit bulkier; but once you shed the processes and applications which you do not require, it should run almost as good as Debian or Scientific Linux. 32bit is for running a server with 3GB or less of RAM, while 64bit is running a server with more than that. Running a server with more than 3GB worth of RAM requires 64bit otherwise the excess RAM is ignored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
