If I just wanted a web server what should I use?..

[PAz]

Hi, Ive had a play with a few linux distro's in the past (mainly ubuntu and mandrake) however this time is a little different.

I need a dedicated webserver (will be running apache), so my question is, is there a particular distro I should look at using for this?

I understand I could get it running on any distro, just wondered if there was anything specific I should consider (and any other advice is welcome )

Thanks

Ta for all the replies.

Plesk looks like it could simplify things which would be cool as I'm still very much a beginner.

May look at using the Ubuntu server distribution as I've used Ubuntu plenty in the past!

Thanks again
