Which is easier to install and why, Windows 2003 Server of Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

Q. I'm doing a little research into the ease of installation of the two primary server OS's, Linux Red Hat Enterprise 5 and Windows Server 2003.
I meant to say Windows 2003 Server or Red Hat Enterprise.
Which one is the least complicated to install?

A. This depends entirely on what you're doing with the systems and what CDs you are using with what kind of patch level incorporated into them. While I have not installed RHE 5, I've installed linux a number of times and it can be fairly easy... but then again, so can windows. The question then becomes what other services you want/need. And frankly, this also depends on what you are familiar with. If you've done the RHE isntall 25 times, then you know it well and it should be quick and easy. Likewise if you've done the Windows install 25 times, then it should be quick and easy. Otherwise, it's going to take longer in both cases.

How to extend the limit of POSIX Threads on RHEL4?
Q. I'm running into threading-limitation issues with an application running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (RHEL4), and would like to increase the limit of posix threads available on the system.

I've searched the web, and the only apparent solution is to 'patch' glibc.

Is there a more practical approach to doing this that won't require recompiling any libraries? A simple variable somewhere would be nice to edit... ;-p

Any suggestions?

A. This can be changed by changing NR_TASKS in include/linux/tasks.h and recompiling the kernel.

What is the name of a Windows server Based Rapid Deployment software that can deploy windows and Linux?
Q. I need to be able to (off of a windows server 2003, 2008 machine) rapidly deploy the OS to either Windows server 2003, 2008, or Red Hat Linux Enterprise edition to multiple machines.
Can you please advise what software to use that is able to perform this function, and either be freeware, or is only licensed for the software, NOT the imaged machines.

A. I don't understand your question very well..but if I got it right you must boot your server from windows installation DVD and make a dual-boot(install a second os on a different location on the hard disk - not C:\Windows - because you have 2003 there already there.)Same for Linux.And if I understand it on the other way you weant to have 3 os booted up in the same time.i don't think that's possible but try Windows HPC Server 2008.
