[NTLUG:Discuss] Re: Need Distro Recommendation, Please

[Ralph Green, Jr.]

Howdy,
  Sorry, I misunderstood you.  Mandrake 9.1 is fine.  I did not suggest
it to Rick Matthews because I thought he needed a newer version of Linux
than Mandrake 9.1.  9.1 has been very stable for me and that server has
never given me any problems.  So, for Rick, since I thought he needed a
newer version than Mandrake 9.1, and I don't recommend 9.2(except in
very narrow circumstances), and 10.0 and 10.1 have not been good enough
for server use for me, I suggested he stay away from Mandrake for his
use.  

  The main reason I will update my Mandrake 9.1 at some point is to get
a newer version of Samba.  And, I still think Mandrake 10.1 is still a
contender for a desktop.
Good day,
Ralph
