I thought they were supposed to be a server O/S, and things like Mandrake "relegated" to the desktop. After all my irritation with SuSE yesterday, I thought I'd revisit Mandrake as a server O/S, putting 9.0 on that machine in question. Not only was it a huge improvement over the last version of Mandrake I put on that machine in terms of speed (8.something was the last one I tried), but also it had all the server-class software I wanted available to me (though I think I still have to recompile a kernel to get bridging to work - if I do, the list might get some questions). My point? I dunno, just talking.
