I'm tempted to recommend RHAS or SLES8/UL1 (I'll SLES8 soon), but from
past experience I'd say you'll end-up compiling most of the stuff yourself
anyway (PERL, and with that mod_perl and the modules via CPAN).
Because, basically, if you install lot's of modules via CPAN, your
"certification" might go away and your vendor won't support your
installation anymore.

You can also take a look at FreeBSD's rt3-port
(http://www.freshports.org/www/rt3) - I haven't tried it, but at least
with that, you may get help from the port-maintainer ;-)

Other than that, you can do a google search a la
http://www.google.com/search?q=+site%3Alists.fsck.com+freebsd

where "freebsd" can be replaces with your favorite OS ;-)



cheers,
Rainer
