First, let me introduce CentOS.
CentOS (Community ENTerprise operating System) is one of the Linux distributions that is compiled from the source code released by Red Hat ENTerprise Linux in accordance with open source rules. Because of the same source code, some servers that require a high degree of stability are used by CentOS instead of the commercial version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The difference between the two is that CentOS does not contain closed source code software.
The CentOS6.0 I'm going to talk about is the latest stable version,
