If you're looking for a __very__ cost-effective solution, then WhiteBox
Linux (
www.whiteboxlinux.org) should be an option. It's built from the
SRPMS for RH EL, but - as discussed in another recent post - the updates
cannot be guaranteed. So you'll have to be willing to take that risk to cut
costs significantly.
