<DIV><BR></DIV>Don't really want to turn this into a big debate on what is the
best linux distrubtion but I looking at using debian mainly to run
network/security tools. Is this a good choice or is there a better
choice? <BR><BR>

<DIV>Though I'd just say I quick hello to everyone. My names Daniel, I
currently live just outside nottingham in the sunny town of heanor. Really
it's in derbyshire but don't like admitting that being a forest fan.</DIV>
<DIV>My Linux experience is currently limitied and has mostly been through
uni which as involved using Red Hat. Also a little Unix on solaris.
Looking at getting more into using it and getting away from my microsoft
routes as I'm a network administrator and all the best tools are on
Linux.</DIV>
<DIV>So hope to speak to some of you soon. Always willing to help anyone
who needs it, although like I say my experience of Linux is limitied, so
more likely to be hardware or networking problems.</DIV></DIV></DIV>
