I may be getting an AMD Duron 1300 cpu in the near future (2 - 6months, don't know and I don't want to rush it ) and I'm planning on turning it into a home server, ie) storing files and an internet gateway for security. Anyway, I was wondering what would be the best OS for this. The system will have a 1300MHz CPU, 192MB Ram, 13gb hdd (maybe bigger later on) and a wired ethernet card (motherboard is an all in one, i have 4 of them already). Anyway, it will be a decent little machine once I build it up. I'm also thinking of putting an ATi Radeon 7000 64MB AGP Card in it to get some ram back. I can get server 2003 (Dad's work has a VLK of it) or I can load 2000 Server (they just got rid of a bunch of 2000 server machines with licenses on them ) or I can load my old version of NT 4 server (although I want USB support for a printer). Anyway, whats your take on it guys? Also post any ideas that I can use to enhance security, ie) firewalls and other stuff that I can use on it. Thanks much
