that being said either will do fine for a server its a mater of preference mostly.

most half ass tech's wont touch freebsd because its harder so centos will always be preferred.

personally i stick to freebsd but i know people that have switched to centos.
Difference between FreeBsd and Centos/Debian is same as difference between Perl/C++/Java/ and PHP
- first one is much better but also much harder to use. The thing is, what is most important is time, and that is why Centos/debian and PHP are top picks.
I tried once freebsd for fun and kicks but when i see howmany additional steps i need to take to do stuff which take 5 seconds to do on centos i said fuck it having a secure shell is not worth to spend somuch extra time on everything.
