<p>+1 for Centos, I have centos5 doing exactly what you're looking to do and it's been rock solid for 2 years now. Your hypervisor should be as stable as possible so, in my mind, fedora isn't even an option.</p>

Go with CentOS, it Enterprise Class, Fedora is kinda of a Dev. OS, by<br>
that I means Fedora comes out everyone plays with it, what works and<br>
is stable is push into the next release of Red Hat/CentOS. So if you<br>
want Stable, CentOS. You want to the latest flavor that could be sweet<br>
today and sour tomorrow, Fedora.<br>
<br>
One thing to keep in mind. If it going to be production, always go<br>
with Stable and if possible Enterprise class.<br>
<br>
That my two cent.<br>
