Looks like I am going to be doing my first serious commercial install of
FreePBX.  I DO mean serious.  They are willing to put up with a few glitches
initially which is why I have decided they will be a good first client.  I
have turned down several over the past couple years because I just did not
feel comfortable with the state of software/hardware.  It seems to work much
better now.

I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good software platform.  I have
been using Debian Sarge and CentOS 4.3 for testing and feel that either one
will do just fine.  I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations based
on experience.  Any rock solid installs out there on either as a
testimonial?

You will get many opinions on this one.

They are both rock solid. Choose a path and stick with it for all of your servers. We started with CentOS but moved to Sarge when it became stable. We have been running several Sarge * servers for 6 to 9 months without any problems.

We spent the last 7 years running our ISP on RedHat. Started looking at other distros when the RH policy changed. Tried a bunch. I really like the Debian distro and the strategy behind it. I like the boot speed. I like the simple elegance of apt. We are now in the process of moving all our RH9 machines to Sarge.

I don't like the fact that CentOS is nothing more than a copy of RH Enterprise Server. It is almost like running a Windows clone. I would rather find and run something better.
