New LDAP server needed, any .02 on distro choice?

What more needs to be said. I am familiar with LDAP from the windows dayz, and my next project is setting up an ldap server and I am wondering what distro would be better/worse. I am guessing most would use openldap, but just looking for .02. I am very familiar with the bigger distros, leaning twords opensuse, centos, fedora, etc.

Thanks ....

If that's all it's going to be doing is LDAP, pretty much any of the bigger distros would work fine. My personal preference is for OpenSuSE, but CentOS or Fedora would work just as well, I'm sure.

Cool, the standard server OS here is CentOS, but since I have moved my laptop to OpenSuse, I have really grown to like the OS.

Thanks
