Re: [MLUG] Distro Suggestion?

[Shawn Parker <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

i've said it before here, i think, but i'm a big archlinux fan 
(http://archlinux.org/).  it's small, easy to install and has ton's of 
freedom.  you can set up a basic server in under 45 minutes.

the package list is pretty up-to-date, but arch does fail a bit in the 
support arena.  you can find some good information in their forums, but 
getting an answer to a question could take a while.
