Is a Linux server any better than a windows server?

I was wondering what the difference was? My website has been on a windows based server and is being transferred to a Linux. Will I have any problems with my current FTP. My computer uses Windows.

  1. It has emerged in the past few days that the Microsoft update site runs on Linux servers! Totally true. There have been a few red faces - MS is basically admitting that Linux server technology is better than their own.

    DC :)

  2. linux server is better, less prone to viruses. should be transparent to you.
  3. Windows has never been up to much at all as far as a secure server. So you should be glad that your host has seen the light and has joined the 80% majority of server base systems. You will love the new stability and ftp smoothness. Maybe you should try Linux yourself, too? ;-)
  4. Linux was built to run servers n code n stuff like that…. As far as I know, servers on windows are horrible. Linux will be your friend with servers though. Take it from one who used to use freebsd ;-)
