Obligatory Debian Plug:

"We start with a Base Install of Debian Stable, add the Shorewall
firewall manager using our 'default deny, explicit allow' templates,
and install only the software necessary to perform the explicit

I'm finally moving back to Debian for my personal box at home.

At work we use RHEL4 and have (I think) four kickstart templates:
"minimal", "workstation", "server" and "everything".  Systems are
kickstarted, and the post-install of kickstart installs cfengine,
which, on first run, blows a standard configuration onto the box.
