Webhosting-Linux Vs Windows

One of the most confusing thing while hosting is about the operating system , means which platform to be hosted.While move into different sites you will come to know that both Linux and windows are the top two different choices.Microsoft developed and owns the Windows operating system. Linux is open source and generally free. This means it can often be more expensive to set up and run a PHP and Perl are Linux based while ASP is based on Windows. If you opt to use ASP to power your web site, then you should go with Windows hosting. You might be told that ASP is available on Linux hosting packages and that's true. But keep in mind it might not work as well on a Linux server as it does on Windows.There are huge difference in performance basis between the two servers Linux reportedly performs faster because Windows (as usual) attempts to offer an 'all in one' package instead of the expendable Linux implementation. Developers are constantly improving both Linux and Windows so they should be fairly close in terms of features, security, and reliability for a long time. It's the people implementing them that you should be basing your decision on.

I think by the time you reach this paragraph, you'll probably have realized that you don't really need to get a web host offering a Mac OS X web hosting package just because you're using a Mac.

Setup time zone in Linux

1. The command used to check the time zone is

[root@server123 ~]# date
MON Jan 14 14:04:01 IST 2010
Here we can see that time zone is set into Indian Standard time.

2.Take the backup of current timezone configuration.

[root@server123 ~]#mv /etc/localtime /etc/localtime-old

2. Change to the directory to /usr/share/zoneinfo. You can find all the time zone regions here. Choose the the appropriate region where you resides. If you live in India choose region kerala in the /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia directory.

3)remove the file /etc/localtime

[root@server123 Asia]# rm /etc/localtime

4. Create a symbolic link from the appropiate timezone to /etc/localtime

[root@server123 Asia]# ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Kerala /etc/localtime

5. Update the current system time by executingthe rdate command.

[root@server123 Asia]#rdate -s rdate.cpanel.net

6. Synchronize hardware clock with system clock .

[root@server123 Asia]# /sbin/hwclock – -systohc
