1 - Bonjour,

Je n'ai pas lu tout ton site, mais attention Domino Linux n'est pas certifié pour Fédora.
Pour le moment seul SUSE et RHES sont des distribution certifiées.
En version 8.5 (fin d'année) Unbunto sera la nouvelle distribution certifiée.
Cordialement

2 - Effectivement, mais RHES (Red Hat) n'est pas disponible sur les dedibox et est payante, fedora est similaire à 99% à la distribution Red Hat car les deux sont géré par la même communauté depuis l'origine. J'ai testé ubuntu avec domino 8 et pour le moment ce n'est pas compatible au niveau de la machine virtuelle Java de la tache HTTP.
