CentOS 5 is good? Going to host forum?
Searching for the VPs I stumbled with pinellashosting.com VPS solutions (what is attracted me is the price). In the offre page I'm seeing they are on the CentOS 5 and I wonder if I will be ok on this with my SMF forum?
Does it really matter?
I would like experts to leave a word

We hosts sites at work on CentOS 5 (including a local university). I also run CentOS on my personal web server that I run with no troubles. For the majority of things running as a webserver, I don't see much of a difference between that and the FreeBSD I used to be on and the debian install I ran for nearly a year on my own server and SuSe linux we ran at a college I where I maintained the site.
About the main difference found is file locations, and even with that, it is pretty easy to find, or google the program and the OS to find out more.

I have one of my web sites hosted on the pinellashosting.com, but that is shared account and not forum. It seems they are using CentOS 5 for the shared as well. SMF is not the task for the server or for the OS and I suppose that shouldn't be the thing which should be the barrier at least with that provider

CentOS is a great open source operating system. It has a longer lifespan that a lot of other ones (like Fedora, for example)

CentOS 5 has many improvements in its latest release. If you are already running CentOS 4 and are looking to upgrade your systems to newer versions of key server services like PHP 5 and MySQL 5, or if you are just looking for a solid general-purpose Linux operating system, CentOS 5 is a good choice. It will be my Linux distribution of choice for servers.

CentOS 5 is really good. Also you can take a look at Fedora 12

Centos 5 is good and you can use any control panel with it
