My goal is to set up a file server with the hope that the same system could also be the host for my own domain. Computer parts aren't a problem as I've got lots hanging around, but I'm looking for a recommended hardware set up and what version/distro of Linux would be best to use to do this. I've got SUSE & Linspire already but am debating Ubuntu.
Are you looking for a file server for an internal network? What are you referring to when you want to host your own domain? A website? The reason I ask, and it is not required, but I would recommend to keep a webserver on a separate box from your internal file server to help reduce risk of exposure if your website/server got compromised.
