Just want to ask a really quick question.
Im going to setup a PDC with Mandrake. It will have Samba 3 as OpenLDAP 2.1.22.
What version of Mandrake is better suited for a production environment?
9.0? 9.1? or 9.2?
Any recommendations and input is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I don't find myself particularly impressed by it then I am afraid.

What do you mean by create an admin user?
