Slackware is a great distro.

So before I start - yes I know that I'll probably get 10 different answers; yet I have to ask just the same.

What is the current distro of choice for deployment of snort?

My sensors are getting long on the tooth (5 years old) running on Pentium D processors and 1 gig of RAM and it is 
time to upgrade. So I have a nice new set coming but I haven't settled on what distro to use for the deployment of 
the sensors.

I'll need to run the basic stuff (snort, apache, php, base, mysql)

right now I'm using Slackware but I'm comfortable with any linux distro. I'm just trying to find out what would be 
best for snort.

Thanks
