I actually have to Linux boxes running production services.  One, the 
primary, is a Debian 3.0 with a custom 2.4 kernel and the other is a 
RHEL4 machine with a stock RHEL4_32 U2 kernel.

Unfortunately, I can't speak to the NFS portion as both of these 
machines an internal RAID array.

Both of these machines handle our needs very well.

Cheers,
Ryan
