If I get a lot of good comments on this I'll make it a little how to on 
zope.org

What *nix is best to use with Zope?
For dev and desktop I personally prefer Mandrake, but what I like becomes 
irrelevant when it's time to set up a serious server for production use.
What matters then is:
  - performance
  - configurability
  - ease-of-use and lack of hacks
  - integration with RDBMS
  - backup possibilities
  - ZEO (load balancing and caching).


Does anybody have any real experience of production deployment with various 
*nix'es.
Which ones are better than other and which ones to avoid.

The "ease-of-use and lack of hacks" is important to me since I'm just an 
experienced *nix user. Far from expert.


Thank you, Peter
