Two of them used RedHat for various tasks and the other used Suse. Btw, imo, Suse is horrible of production server use but that is just my opinion. Production use? All over the damn place. I do Voice Over IP primarily Sun boxes but our VM solution uses RedHat based very customized linux boxes. Used NetVault for backups in a production environment for a medium sized company. Linux is not just for webservers anymore boys and girls.
