    SME is a nice Linux server, although sometimes it can be infuriating. I've found it to be reliabled and pretty easy to work with.

    Slackware as a last resort to Linux. Go with a BSD.

    Good idea. Hope you won't regret if you get FreeBSD.

    Try OpenBSD for ironclad security.

    FreeBSD, not that hard to install.....
  • SlashSlash
    But not that easy to tune...
