A noble idea!

IMHO, no linux will do. If you would like a free unix variant to run the
highest quality server with a true unix-like environment. I saw *BSD;
which BSD depends on what you would like to do. Typically, this is the
rule of thumb... 

1. FreeBSD - Webserver, SFTP server, file server, etc.
2. NetBSD - Same as above with a concentration on portability.
3. OpenBSD - Security... *HARDCORE* Security, not for the faint of
heart.

Best,
