Thanks for the fast reply, I will read the manual, I see it contains quite a 
lot of information. If you could send me the source-rpms, just to be sure, it 
would be very nice.
I use opensuse because I started using it long long time ago for my desktop 
and it seemed a logical choice for my server. Now I notice it might not be the 
optimal choice and I consider freebsd for a next server, but that is a whole 
different discussion.

Thanks!
