[TriLUG] stuck on samba install

Well if I'm going to reinstall it WON'T be Red Had.  I'm already
getting tired of filling out the 'confirmation' surveys to continue to
use the up2date features.  Even Micro$oft hassles me less about
updates.

Anyone have any suggestion on what would be a good distro to try that
is similar to Red Had but maybe a bit less intrusive in regards to
updates, etc.

thanks,
Jim
