What UNIX is best for an all-in-one-server deployment

Heya,

my university department wants to deploy a UNIX based system instead of various unnetokred windows PCs. We are trying to build a terminal server solution on either FreeBSD,Solaris or Debian Linux. The system would mostly run office applications on X11 and file sharing (with Samba). In addition the server should also run DNS, Email and web hosting on a small scale in the public internet( hosting a VERY small site advertising the department and running email). I would most likely be the only administrator involved and there will be only one single machine( a x86 with a Quad core intel processor and 4 or 8 GB RAM - x64 is preffered,but not necessary) booting a few terminals (old PCs) via network and PXE/Etherboot.

I have experience with all of the mentioned O/S, but I never ran any of them in a multi-user configuration. WHich one do you think would be the best choice( the budget is tigth, so we couldn't afford Windows or a commercial UNIX) causing the least administration hassles and giving most performance?

Thank you for your help....
Julian Bangert

NAME
zemberek-server - Turkish spell-checker server SYNOPSIS
zemberek-server [CONFILE] or java -jar /usr/share/java/zemberek-server.jar [CONFILE] DESCRIPTION
zemberek-server is a Java(TM) based ``Turkish'' spell checker daemon which listens a configured port (by default, 10444) for client connec- tions and responds with the Turkish spell checked output in a server-client fashion. zemberek-server uses Zemberek, a Java(TM) based Turk- ish NLP library, at its heart. Certain parts of the servers' behaviour can be controlled in the CONFILE configuration file. For example, to change the listened port one can use the SERVER_PORT setting in CONFILE. OPTIONS
There are no options. NOTES
To make use of the server, a client program is required (see the next section). FILES
/etc/zemberek-server.conf configuration file /var/log/zemberek-server.log server's log file when running in the background SEE ALSO
