Ubuntu or OpenSuse
 
ok, I've been playing around with Ubuntu server> I was able to configure SAMBA, FTP and create a few folders for backup however I find it a little hard get around due to the fact that I'm so used to YaST. Here it is a question that just pop-up as I was falling asleep (It's 2am in NJ) which Distro Server is better? Ubuntu or OpenSuse? I know this is most like a personal choice but I would like to get your opinion since most of you guys have a lot of experience with Linux Servers. I have an Intel Celeron 2.4, 1.5GB RAM, 200GB hard drive.
Thanks guys and good nite! :=)

I posted this reply in another Threat but none answered so I guess this would be a better place to post this.

Distro server ,
if you want to use the server for hosting your webpage ,i advise you then to use ubuntu server.
if you need to install server for other things then you can shoose opensuse.

If I only had the choice between those two I'd go with Ubuntu.
Although I'm not a fan of Ubuntu I still prefer it over anything labeled Suse. ;)

If I could freely pick I'd probably go for Engarde Secure Linux.
