I am running a network consisting of an internal network of 30 clients running win9x boxes. I am running a DMZ which contains an email server, an web server, a dns server and a caching proxy server. My gateway box is connected to a cisco router which is connected to the net. My gateway box is also connected to the internal network and the dmz. The Win9x clients need access to the caching proxy, email server and dns. Now what kind of OS do you guys suggest for the box hosting the caching proxy server and the box hosting the gateway? Performance wise which'll give me the best: Linux, Solaris of FreeBSD? I thank you guys in advance.
