Hello Guys,
Well I am on my KDE 3.1 Desktop right now. I have installed Linux because I have had a few recommend it for my current setup. I was using WinXPHome(upgrade version) for the following:
FTP Server, File Server, Remote Desktop Server, VPN Server. The few that recommended said so because of the security issues facing WindowsXP, and the fact XP Home is unstable as a Server OS. Mind you, I have had XPHome Server running stable for the last year and a half or so, though I was using firewalls, antivirus, windows update to the nutz. I guess my question is: Am I doing the right thing? There seems to be a lot of configuration dilemmas that I have to going to have to figure out. Is it worth my time?
