GoDaddy ends support for Fedora Core 2 & 4
29 October, 2007 08:43
I was waiting for this to happen. Here is the e-mail I received for one of my domains:
Regarding your server........
Due to the security and development improvements to the Fedora System, we will be discontinuing support for the following Operating Systems as of March 15, 2008:
Fedora Core 2
Fedora Core 4
We recommend that you upgrade the server as outlined below at your earliest convenience.
1. Log into your Account Manager.
2. In the My Products section, select "Dedicated/Virtual Dedicated Servers."
3. Select the server you want to upgrade.
4. Under Account Details select "Other Add-ons."
5. Select the operating system "Fedora Core 6."
6. Click "Continue," then "Save Changes."
Once the plan change completes, a server reprovision is necessary. Please note that by doing this; all data on the server will be erased. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you make a backup of your data before continuing.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns which you have in relation to this matter.
Thanks again for choosing GoDaddy.com servers.
Sincerely,
GoDaddy.com
I gave them a ring and they assured me that the support is the only aspect being discontinued. If you use one of these Fedora Core versions, you will still be able to maintain and support your system. However, for the majority of users with a control panel, and itchy security experience, you may want to re-provision your server if you want automatic updates.
