Thank you to all of you who took the time to reply. A lot of people seem to think that Slackware would be a good choice, so I am going to go with that. I just want a good network scanner (for my LAN at work - I am the net admin in case you are wondering) without all the hassle of waiting for the GUI to boot and etc. I have lots of tools for Windows, but I have always found more support for this kind of thing under Linux. I will let you guys know how it goes - but it may be awhile. Thanks.

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? Thanks Matt _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ----
