I would go with whatever OS you already have deployed and experience with. Syslog isn't going to be very dependent upon the underlying OS so that's not really an issue. If you have a lot of RedHat, go with RedHat. I personally would avoid the costly systems like Solaris, HP-UX, etc.just because you won't need what they have to offer.

I would like to stick to Unix or Linux based OS's if possible. Thanks in advance, Leon
