Mr dpeca I have question just curious, why did you choose just Debian over other distro? must be some reason behind it. Would you please share? And an other question is that, Since Ubuntu is Debian base Distro, would it work with Ubuntu or not.?

Thanks

Why Debian?
Just a coincidence in my life.
First dedicated server that I bought came with Debian, it was 2005.
I was delighted with 'apt-get', because on all previous Linux servers I had to compile manually all services, which is agony.
So, my next server was also Debian, because I had great experience with first Debian.
Once when I learned administration on Debian, I never had a wish to use something other.

I think myVesta will not work on Ubuntu.

Why I didn't try Ubuntu?
Debian always works well.
Since Ubuntu is a fork of Debian, it seemed to me that it's better to be on the root of updates... since many security updates are implemented in Ubuntu AFTER being implemented in Debian.
