What Is UNIX - LINUX


UNIX/LINUX is a computer operating system (the basic software running on a computer, underneath things like word processors and spreadsheets). UNIX is designed to be used by many people at the same time (it is multi-user) and has TCP/IP built-in. It is the most common operating system for servers on the Internet.

Many of our shared servers run LINUX(CentOS 5), which was modeled after UNIX. Mac OS is also modeled after UNIX. This operating system is very web server-friendly and is known for being secure.
