There are certain cases where BSD prevails over Linux, but in any case, whatever does the job for is fine. However,i've found in my own personal cases that BSD offers much more stability in a production enviroment. My personal choices for OSes are as follows...
1. Gentoo 2. FreeBSD 3. CentOS in order. Depending on what needs my client has or what use the server OS farm needs to be, I would flip 1 and 2 around. If you are building out a firewall, FreeBSD would be the way to fly. No flames, this is just my personal adventures with these OSes..
