Personally, I've compiled Asterisk on Redhat and Debian without any problems on 
either, I think generally Asterisk compiles very easily no matter what the distro but 
I would recommend that you use the one you are most comfortable/experienced with.

In my opinion, Debian is the best for compiling programs, because you can 
'apt-get' any dependencies and its respective dependencies in a quick and clean way. 
You can also use auto-apt.
And if you don't want to compile, you can 'apt-get install asterisk' and get 
asterisk running in seconds :-). But, I prefer the cvs version of asterisk.

Good advice.  Unfortunately, nobody with requisite skill has stepped up
to get this thing ported over to FreeBSD (though I recently heard a
rumor that someone finally got it built).  Nothing personal against
Linux, in fact I was highly impressed with the RH9 install last week and
will likely end up with it on my laptop if not my desktop, but for
servers there are a great many people, including myself, who much prefer
BSD over Linux.

I can't speak for all BSD users, but for myself, the issue is not so
much one of trust, it's a matter of (re)learning the linux way.  I
originally gave up Linux in favor of FreeBSD because in 1996, FreeBSD
was better in many ways, most of which no longer apply (just the
asthetic ones).

Actually, it's been ported over to OpenBSD.  It shouldn't be too much of
a struggle to adapt Asterisk to FreeBSD, although I haven't tried yet.
The real difficulty will be in porting the zaptel drivers over to
FreeBSD.

BTW, gastman currently compiles and runs on FreeBSD.  I'd recommend
GTK-2.0, however, over GTK-1.2, as the 1.2 stuff has some critical
problems.

I would love to see FreeBSD support.  Any links on the OpenBSD port?
