simple server machine

Asked by Joms Antony

I want to configure a simple server machine which runs on Jboss and Postgres, which version of Linux is best to use as an OS?
some one told me to use Red Hat Linux 7.2 i386. What about using Ubantu, if so which version desktop/server?

Should I go for 12.04 desktop or server. I just need to run Jboss and postgres. I think desktop version will be enough is it?

if you are new to the OS then use desktop. if you are comfortable in command line for everything then use server.

Can you help with this problem?
