FreeBSD & Red Hat

Hi,

I'm a total new beginner to Unix!

I am currently looking to move a website I own from my existing web hosts to Rackspace.

My website currently runs from a server using the FreeBSD UNIX variant operating system but Rackspace seem to think if I move it to them I can still run everything without a hitch with the operating system they use - Red Hat.

As a Unix virgin I have no idea if this is viable or not?

Would really appreciate your comments!

Thanks

Certainly, there are differences between BSD and RH, but the structure of the site will be the same, so there shouldn't be any problem. It depends, however, if you are running specific commands of BSD in the background, which are not present on RH. Also, consider looking into PHP / MySQL / Apache versions before moving the site.
