Hi Bill,

if you don't have that much linux/ unix knowledge in house, then you should 
use the distribution that your staff that setup this kind of systems normally 
are familar with. :-) If you plan to go with consultants, look for the 
availability of certain distribution knowledge in your area. Another factor 
you should keep in mind is what other applications need to run on this 
servers (certifications, availability).
