When suddenly, from all around, you you hear "Gentoo" ... "Gentoo!" ...
"Gentoo!" whispered softly.

I've heard some good things about RH 9, but I've never been a Redhat fan
myself, it's just too bloated for me :)

I'm already downloading it... I'll tell you as soon as I finish and install... But I've heard it's good.

Anyway, I'm using MAndrake9.1 and It's great...

If you want a good Distro... go slackware... it's a little harder.. but it's the best one.... (I'm also downloading it... It's just one CD... the rest I'm installing from source).

I've installed it on one desktop and two servers. One server was Dell PowerEdge 1600 and the other was some kind of rackmount, dual processor, 5 drive scsi thing. Not being a Linux person it made the whole process easy on all machines. I've installed RH ver. 5.2, 6.1, and 6.2 but that's about all I've done. This made it easy to configure network/ip settings and everything. I understand that' how 7.3 and up are, too. This was just easy though. For someone that is not a Linux person, it made it nice. Now I just have to dig into the bare bones stuff. I need to setup iptables, snort and some kind of web content filtering for it. I imagine I will not have to ease of gui stuff the more I get into it.
