I'm curious. 

Why FC5? 

It's fine for a desktop, but has some shortcomings as a server platform.

The key one being shorter support lifespan. 

Why not one of the free Red Hat Enterprise Linux distros, which are
source and binary compatible with RHEL 4+ and have 5+ years of
guaranteed support coverage? 

For instance:
 
 http://www.centos.org/


All free ISO downloads and totally open source, like FC5.
