Thanks to all for the responses (last week). Good news - I finally managed a clean install with Suse10 last Friday so I am sticking with that distro. I started to explore, after discovering Yast, I installed more packages, including php, mysql, apache, samba, postgresql + dependencies.
I had used the default base install. Now I have figured out that it defaulted to 2 partitions (1. swap, 2. / which is reisernfs). So now after all this I am thinking of a re-install and re-partition as follows(based on readup on the net) and using ext3 instead(this is based on hearsay not my knowledge): swap /boot /var /home Does this look reasonable and how should the sizing look like? I have been told 'swat' is a good gui for configuring samba config, for the unfamiliar. Comments? Although I wanted something similar to the Windows ldap based Active Directory, I am told to take a few steps back from openldap at this point. I was testing Suse9.3 Enterprise at home, the os doesn't tell me how many days are left before it quits on me? I guess I could wait for that day- anyone tried this? Apologies for so many questions!
