The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release. -
The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Even I have a hard time keeping up with fedora, and I dont have to do any QA or Testing 
Hi Scott!
I don't think its too bad. I think they are pushing F8 fast as you know F7 was so late in development.
I don't see the hassle anyway as a new OS is a good time to clean up things anyway.
Certainly for me F7 has been a positive experience and to get my production server up to F7 with plesk will suit me just perfectly.
People often get worried about running Fedora on a production server. I can't imagine why I have not had one issue with the server and my clients enjoy all the current packages in the OS.
24 months ago I got my first dedicated server at godaddy running blasted fc4!
After all their empty promises of FC6 update (not even blasted FC5) I had enough. Built a dual core 2.66, and put the server at home and got a second ADSL2+ annex m connection.
Its been a perfect experience and with my ISP uploads are uncounted so it flies. Performance and throughput is better than godaddy as well as the price

I'm with ya, I use F7 for my desktop here. CentOS 4 & 5 on the servers. A lot of what I put into ART starts from F7/rawhide as the upstream.
Feature wise I think its definitely the most advanced one out there, so if you can stay on top of it with your servers then go for it. I've just got too many systems on the server side, although I do use it frequently for development/testing/QA.

I wanted to go Fedora 7 with the current Plesk release.
Lots of hosting companies use Fedora one version or another, so I just wanted to chuck the latest one on.
I got myself a lovely PowerEdge 3250 (Use to belong to Morgan Stanley according to the Service Tag), and I'm currently bringing the systems firmware up-to-date prior to the OS install.
If I can't get Fedora 7 to work, then I guess I'm going to have to use CentOS 5 64bit for now. I need to get it in the server house soon, and don't really want to hang around till Plesk 9 is out.

Well, yes. Maybe CentOS is not that widespread in admin minds - yet. IMHO a perfect alternative to Fedora - stable, also RPM-based, long-term support, excellent community.
I was using Fedora on servers for a long time - but now I'm more and more migrating to CentOS - profiting from the advantages mentioned above.
My recommendation for the latter

What is RPM and for that matter what is YUM?
I've been a harden Micosoft user for years, since pre-Windows 3.11 days starting with DOS and going up from there.
In the past when I was working for a firm that built web delivered training solutions using Delphi, .NET, HTML, and CGI with full user tracking and so on, I built Windows web server boxes starting with NT4. We learnt the hard way about security pre-Service Pack 4 when the box got hacked and used as a torrent server for a day. Cost allot in bandwidth and wasn't my fault as someone else in the office had done the OS install. After the event I had to do the security lock down on it, which did the trick.
I'm now a freelancer and have been back to work for them since then. They use Dell Servers now but are still running Windows Server 2003.
Personaly I feel that Linux is a much better and more secure platform for web hosting enviroment. That's why my own servers will be Linux.
I would put myself in the Linux newbiee box even though I have played with Redhat before, and built a few Level 3 servers in the past.

RPM -> RPM Package Manager (yes its a circular acronym!). Think .msi if you're from the windows world.
YUM -> Yellowdog Updater Modified. Think windows update service.

Is there anything special I need to do or select when installing CentOS 5?
Can I install the full GUI version, or is it better to do a server install. I have never install CentOS 5 before, and don't want to mess it up.
Help

You dont really need X (the gui) on a server box.
