Are you simply talking a Home network or do you mean as a Home/Small business network or similar ????
Recently, AppArmor has been added with Ubuntu Linux (most popular perhaps) which is much a case hardening in security whereas Linux itself has already been much of what Vista was made into with UAC User Account Control. (rootkits can not run on windows vista, neither can viruses write to the disk - just temporary files needing user interaction to infect the pc). Look at SSL perhaps.

I know what some people will say. Linux has absolute flexibility in its network. You can put just about anything in it. It also does not really have a domain controller, etc. However, if we were to set up our own Linux network, what are the basic components we need? In a Window network, we need a domain controller with Active Directory installed. What do we need for Linux? What exactly are the necessary components we need for a Linux network? I think we need at least an OpenLDAP, don't we? And also some servers. What are the other stuff to make a good Linux network? I am a newbie in this.
