About:
SoL (Server optimized Linux) is a Linux distribution completely independent from other Linux distributions. It was built from the original source packages and is optimized for heavy-duty server work. It contains all common server applications, and features XML boot and script technology that makes it easy to configure and make the server work.

[»] Applications not server orientated
by Nermal - Mar 27th 2003 08:27:58

I was bit suprised that "Server Optimised Linux" has now got applications like kde / gnome / mp3 encoders / gimp etc. Surely those are applications for a desktop enviroment, and not for a server?

Its an add-on package for SoL 16.00. Its NOT a standalone distribution! SoL-desktop was made because the SoL community requested it and antitachyon was so nice and developed it.

SoL does not contain these desktop-applications. They are in the desktop-extension to SoL, called SoL-desktop, for people who want to use SoL as workstation/desktop and don't want to get the packages or use another distribution. I use SoL-desktop on top of SoL, for example.
