Bite your tongue, Kev!!! :-)) Travis, I think there is a utility called slackget (or sumphin' like that) that works much the same as aptget....Have a look at google or freshmeat.net.... I am old school. I install a minimalist system, then build everything from scratch (including compilers and libs...) Kevin Anderson wrote: You'll regret choosing something other than Suse or Red Hat.

It will server these purposes: Samba server (just in the internal network) Web server (one site external a few internal sites) NFS Server (internal network only) MySQL server (internal network only) The smallest space footprint would be best. I would like the software to be quite stable and tested (IE. not MySQL 5 or apache2 (where its only security patches and not new features)) I don't much like RPM distros but if that's the best option that's what I'll use. I'd like a good package management system. I won't be installing source code. ( I want to keep with the packages to easily keep track of everything.) I been thinking about Debian or FreeBSD. what do you guys thing would be the best option (Please post other distros if you think they are better)? Travis R. P.S. Sorry I just cant think today. _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying_______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying -- =*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*= ---oo0oo-- Juan Alberto Cirez - Software Developer --oo0oo--- =============== [EMAIL PROTECTED] ======================= C, C++, Java, Perl, PhP & .NET Enterprise Solutions Network Security & Intrusion Detection Embedded Software Engineering Supporting Windows & Linux Environments =*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*= Sunny and Beautiful British Columbia, Canada. =*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*= |
