Mandrake if you want bleeding edge and best user group support, SuSE if solidity is paramount. If you need this for an additional machine to network with your OS/2 machine, choose SuSE 8.2 or whichever Mandrake last had v2.x samba (9.2 or 9.1 - I don't remember which was last). Newer distros have as yet unsolved samba 3 bugs that mean peer won't work. -- "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."
