RH 8 & 9 FIRST in the list of Linux distros that Asterisk compiles and runs on and having
any bugs (oh I mean RH problems) discarded. It would be much more help to have responses
such as yours or to have RH removed from the supported distro lists if it truly does not work right with
Asterisk. It would also be useful for the experts to tell everyone else which Linux distros are
supposed to work 100% with Asterisk.
One more question for the enlightened: How does the Debian Distro (Woody and greater) play with Asterisk?

Since not all of us are so enlightened, please complete the sentence so that at least some of us have a clue as to the non-partisan issues? No offense intended, but there really are folks here that would like to learn from other's experience however boring that might be.
my experience with redhat 9 resulted in this nugget of information to solve the problems i was having. asterisk threads sometimes cause the processor to max out all resources - and when a new thread is initiated it takes a while to fight back enough processing power. theres a bit of a config that needs to be done to make sure it doesnt happen. in /etc/init.d/asterisk (installed by running "make config") make sure:
case "$1" in start) # Start daemons. echo -n "Starting asterisk: " daemon safe_asterisk
should be
case "$1" in start) # Start daemons. export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 echo -n "Starting asterisk: " daemon safe_asterisk
this makes redhat 9 use the old thread model rather than the new one, and stops asterisk from getting all messed up. this is the only change ive had to make to stop asterisk behaving differently from my 7.3 and 8 machines.
