Well, I'd say that if keeping up with current stuff like BT is a requirement, the job is more likely to be achieved by Ubuntu as a server install (i.e. none of the desktop stuff) than with Debian, due to the feature upgrade cycle. But, if you're actually trying to operate the machine as a trusted interface to the Internet, rather than to play with it, then OpenBSD is the significantly more secure option, although much more difficult to set up. -jim
