Question by krog: What is the most stable Linux kernel to use for a simple, secure, hands-off FTP server?
I want to build a very simple, secure FTP server (with SSL), with little else, no GUI. I want to put this thing in a corner and let it run and forget about it. What Linux kernel do you recommend for this? Should I use a particular distro? Or put the pieces together myself? I’m a n00b, but want to learn and do it right. Thanks!
