Answer Wiki:
Hi, We've settled on Red Hat, AS 3.0 for 9.2 and 10G distribution. Seems to be the most robust, has the best documentation and is fairly easy to setup and administer.

For US, Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Europe, SuSE Enterprise Linux.

These are the only two that HW/SW venders will support.

I would hope to see more support for SuSE in the United States (and North America) now that Novell has purchased SuSE. We should be seeing more OS support from them, I’m just not sure how long it will take for the hardware vendors to jump on board.

Suse Linux Enterprise Server (Latest is 11.1 & 2) is the best among the others. I um using this distro and it is superb in respect of Hardware / Software. Very easy to handle and well documented.

I’ll vote for RHEL or derivatives (if you don’t need support ;o))
