I am writing this E-mail on Gentoo, with Kmail compiled from source, it took 
me 4 days to install all the staff, but I finally have exactly what I want.
The problem is: I am new to gentoo and I don't know how to manage ~30 machines 
with gentoo, compiling from source on every machine is out of the question,
some machine will take weeks to finish, I know about stage3, but still I will 
have to compile some things and create my own stage3.
I don't know how to handle automatic security updates without compiling 
either.

Setting a local binary DB is an option but still portage is very new to me.
I must say it's the best distro to compile with.
Only one compile stopped on me and that because I was missing one USE flag 
when compiling  ocaml.
I added the USE flag and emerge ocmal again and that was it.

Regards
Gal
