From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Best community to ask Red Hat questions? (lemmy.sdf.org)

I have an issue with some servers at work where I have been unable to determine the best course of action to address it based on pre-existing knowledge within my team or web searches. Does anyone have suggestions for the best place to ask RHEL-specific questions? I don't want to presume that it's OK to post such nitty-gritty technical questions here.

There's nothing wrong with asking it here. You may not get an answer if it's something specific to RH that those here don't know about, but I can't imagine anyone will give you crap for it.

It's easier to direct you to the right place knowing what the question is too.

Just be careful not to put any sensitive information in the question if it's regarding corporate hosts
