I run CentOS 5.4 for my backend. I use CentOS because I am comfortable 
with Red Hat derivatives and it has the packages I need for all the 
different services I run on the machine.

I run MiniMyth for my frontends. I use MiniMyth because it is exactly 
what I need (I am the maintainer of MiniMyth).
