Scientific Linux 3 should be very popular, particularly since it's a Fermilab&CERN distribution of RHEL3 + AFS + various goodies. (http://www.scientificlinux.org/) Often called "SL3" for short. We are migrating to it here.
I use Fedora Core 2 on neutrino.phys.ksu.edu, but intend to upgrade someday.
We use SL3 on the more recently configured machines, to the best of my knowledge.

P.S. SL4 has been out for a month, == RHEL4 + goodies including "cluster support", don't know much else about it.

Subject: Linux distribution poll
In order to head off some of the build problems we've been having,
I'm planning to setup some automated build testing so I can quickly
see an update has broken RAT on a particular platform.
Since it seem Texas is the only group using SPARC Solaris, I'm going
to assume everyone else is using Linux on AMD/Intel CPUs. Which
Linux distributions are people planning to use RAT on? So far I've
seen RedHat 7.2 and RedHat 7.3 mentioned on the list.
Thanks.
