Agreed. For the ultimate in security, OpenBSD is king. Perhaps I
rephrase the question: For a box w/o X on it, be it a server, a
compute server, a log server, firewall, Beowulf node, whatever, what
benefit does Mandrake have once you take away all the pretty gui tools?
*Note* To those who are lighting off their flamethrowers because I
question Mandrake like this, keep in mind: It's just that: questioning.
I'm not trying to trash Mandrake, or any other distro. I'm just
trying to ascertain pluses and minuses for a given scenario.
