I am building a small content site. Can you guys recommend a content management system?
My host is PHP/Mysql/Linux.
I heard mambo and phpnuke are pretty good? Any comments?
Do you know which one is more search engine friendly?

Thanks

Mambo has a search-engine friendly URL feature built in. The URLs have some odd punctuation, but there's no query string. There's a fairly inexpensive hack that creates keyword-based filenames from the article title, like how-to-wash-your-cat.htm.

I haven't used phpNuke; some versions had security issues, but I'd hope those have been corrected by now.

I'm guessing that you'll end up having to hack some code in any package to get exactly what you want from an SEO standpoint.
