As this is on the FreeBSD list, and most of us being most familiar with FreeBSD, I am certain the conclusions flow rather easily from there. The same would apply should you ask on an OpenBSD list or a Debian list. As there are no particularly horrible underlying flaws in any of the above operating systems, the easiest solution may be to merely shrug the shoulders and blindly pick one. If someone you know already uses one of these systems, that may be the path of least resistance. -- --
