And I would like to recommend Centos ( http://www.centos.org/ ) or
Tao ( http://www.taolinux.org/ ) distros. They are Red Hat ES4 clones.
Both these distros quarantee long time progs updating
and security updates. Updating can be done even automatically.
I've used them without any problems (distro problems) in quite many
professional installations. And I'm also using them in my home network
servers and workstations (in all 4, allthough in laptop I have at the 
moment
Mandriva). I'm more than happy with them.

Cheers,
Kari
