[Hampshire] What distro?

I do not want to start a flamefest but here goes.

I am planning to replace an aging mandrake box that acts as a fireall,
mailhub, webserver and general dogsbody with a newer "lowend" box.

My problem is picking the distro.

So for your internet facing box what distros do you use?

I use a number of distros at work and the choices seem to be

* gentoo
* debian
* redhat

Jacqui

p.s.
mandrake was never my choice and I regret it every time I try
to install something.
