Have you looked at Gentoo? It's definitely not a beginner's distro, but you can install as much or as little as you want.
And it is supposedly very fast, because you can compile EVERYTHING from source (with local optimizations). www.gentoo.org HTH, Martin Polley Technical Communicator http://www.surf-com.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: (+972) (4) 9095-732 Mobile: (053) 864-280 ICQ 15617901 -----Original Message----- From: Ishai Parasol [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 19, 2002 4:16 PM To: Linux Mailing-List Subject: lite distributions Hi I'm planing a litlle home network with a gateway & firewall on the first box, and then 3 old boxes (pentium 100 or so with 500mb hd) that suppose to serve http, mail, ftp, etc for the outside world. each box should have no more than apache+ftp+ssh or postfix+ftp+ssh without any X or other stuff. What I don't know is which distribution should I use for the boxes - I need somthing that will work with this kind of hardware and disk size and still be able to compile and run the latest versions of apache, postfix etc. I'm doing this for learning purposes and I don't expect too many hits on those servers so performance should'nt be a problem. Any good advices ? Thanks, Ishai. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
