KUDO's to you, Sir!!!<br><br>A variation on the recommendation from Reindl Harald, is maybe set up a primary computer for your friend to use, being Fedora, for its useability with a second system running CentOS (which is up to v6.4 these days---very current) to handle the server-side of things. Assuming he has a large enough screen, then the functionality of Fedora might do the trick as his interface between both hosts (desktop and server). Another recommendation that would give him a bit more stability in this case, is to ensure all the updates for Fedora are occurring until its end-of-life, then simply turn off the yum updates. The downside would be no new features, nor updates/patches. In his case that might be
worthwhile!<br><br>Wishing you both the best as you go down this road!<br><br>R,<br>-Joe<br><div><span><br></span></div><div><br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; margin-top: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> <div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> <hr size="1"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> les <hlhowell@pacbell.net><br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> users <users@lists.fedoraproject.org> <br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b> Wednesday, March 27, 2013 1:55 PM<br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subject:</span></b> Creating a server with Fedora 18<br> </font> </div> <br>I have a friend who is vision impaired.
