file server distro?

General Computing *nix and other operating systems

well then, I was planning to use RH9 on my file/web server but in light of recent news I’m more tempted to use something else.

All the box will be doing is acting as file/web dev/print server so I don’t need too many shiney addons. Distro recommendations ?

cheers

From what I keep hearing on the HantsLUG, Debian is v.good for server purposes… it’s more streamlined than RH.

Yep, Debian would be the way forward. Nice packaging system, stable.
