sounds somewhat suspicious:) there are also other leenox distros available like Debian (http://www.debian.org) which has "good" package-managing system called apt, also people like Slackware (http://www.slackware.org). If you want to try something else than Linux there are other options aswell for *nix-like OS, FreeBSD (http://www.freebsd.org), NetBSD (http://www.netbsd.org) and OpenBSD (http://www.openbsd.org). For minimalistic systems, Minix (http://www.cs.vu.nl/~ast/minix.html). *BSD's and Minix are free for download and they all got nice documentations. examples and howtos.

Hey all, I am trying to create a somewhat 'standard' install that I can use for Red Hat. The main purpose for this box would to do scans (i.e. nmap) and maybe packet generation to test our firewall. Now I don't have a lot of Linux experience, but I want to install the minimal possible. The test machine that I am using is an old p 233Mhz - so in other words the first thing gone is the gui. Can anyone point me to some HOWTO or something like that?
