Best Linux distro for RT?

Hi,
I’ve been battling trying to get RT3 and RT2 installed on a Redhat 9.0
box, however I’ve soon realised I need to update several other
components to get
it working. I cant really do this as I will break other stuff.

So I think it is time to dedicate another box to the task.

Q. Which is the best linux distro to install RT 3x on, with least work?

Thanks

Mike

I have had no problems with SuSE 9.0. Everything was just fine.

Except in one installation I did I think I had to upgrade the
pre-installed DBI Perl module, but that’s it.

Isn’t the only possibly problematic requirement to have Perl >= 5.8?

Can you describe what your problem is?

Thanks
