Enh, Redhat only starts everything if it is configured to start everything,
and has utilities (and manual ways) of telling it not to start everything

IMHO, redhat is a hell of a lot harder, due
to the fact it launches every damn service you
can think off, most of which are outdated and full of security 
holes, and when you try to update them linuxconf throws a 
fit becuase you didnt do it through a GUI.

FreeBSD is a hell of a lot easier to set up as a server
you can trust, without chewing your fingers off.
