@BBigford Mint. We did it! (Only 7 users tho.)
I saw in an older post of yours I believe, you are using Samba4 for your file share, no central directory. Right?
Right.

Considering the hack Mint suffered recently - I've seen reports that indicate they aren't doing that great of a job securing their distro.
Can anyone attest to that one way or the other?

Good choices generally are...
- Mint
- OpenSuse Tumbleweed
- Fedora
In that order. Zorin is supposed to be really good, too.

Mint hack? I've heard of a number of security problems with open source things, but completely missed the Mint one. Got any handy reference?

I've heard great things about Zorin. Have yet to jump on and try it though.

It wasn't an OS issue. It was just a download issue.
