SuSE?! That is just cruel.
The realistic choice for servers today is either Debian or CentOS. This is what you'll find in pretty much any large deployment and for good reasons.
Ubuntu may be a distant third candidate due to its recent popularity, however it was never really meant for servers. Many of their policies are problematic in a server-env and most of the perceived popularity stems from inexperienced people who, by default, use on their server what they know from their desktop.
And please don't recommend SuSE. That is really just cruel.
- cmccabe 14y agoSuSE has made a few questionable decisions, like being the first major distribution to call btrfs stable, and playing games with libc symbols in 10.x. I was on board the Fedora train until recently, but I had to get off because it was changing from RHEL beta edition to... RHEL pre-alpha edition. I have a soft spot for SuSE, but I've never been a full-time sysadmin, so you have to take my recommendations with a grain of salt.
