Could you recommend what your system of Vmin and Webmin work best with. I have your product and I am using it on Ubuntu 12.04 server. I also have 14.4 Ubuntu desktop. Ubuntu has too many issues. This just started in the last 6 months. I want to switch the version of Linux I am using.
- What is the best distribution (Debian, Redhat, or whatever) and version to use.
- Do I need to do anything different once I reinitialize the disk and add the server programs?
I have redone the server a couple of times but these two questions will help.
Thank you,
Thomas Rendleman

Howdy -- any Grade A supported distro should work well for you. You can see the list of supported distros here:
http://virtualmin.com/os-support
If you run into a problem with a distribution, let us know and we can work with you to go over what isn't working properly.
Ubuntu is one of our more popular distros, second only to CentOS. I personally use Ubuntu on all my systems, Joe and Jamie prefer CentOS. However, both should work well.
When re-installing a server, there isn't anything special you need to do; you can just install a copy of your preferred distribution, then run the install.sh script.

On os-support When it says Centos 6.... Does that mean Centos 6.5 is ok? http://mirror.atlanticmetro.net/centos/6.5/isos/x86_64/

Yes, the entire CentOs 6.x line is supported.
Also, we will soon be releasing support for CentOS 7. That support should be available in the next few weeks.
