We have been running cPanel + Fedora for the past month and it has been rock solid. I was a bit worried at first but took the chance since Fedora is a fork of redhat its not like there trying to support a new OS.
So far so good, I will keep you updated on any caveats or hiccups if you like.

We have a couple of servers with Fedora and Cpanel.. err. almost half a dozen and they are doing great. I would recommend jumping into Fedora/Cpanel with ease.
Fedora doesn't have pico installed, but that can be done manually in no time

I'd have to echo the other two.
I was hesitant. But, we've not had any problems.There is no best host. There is only the host that's best for you.

Same experiences here... no major problems and have about three Fedora servers online. In fact, although I wouldn't say our RHES boxes have been problematic, they have shown more niggly issues than our Fedora boxes.

Works just great.
As a CPanel distributor, we find that most company's today are using Fedora when they signup for a license.Jeff F

Fedora is solid as a rock I haven't seen or heard about any issues.

The people using Fedora and Cpanel are you using Core 1 or Core 2 ?

Core 1. I wouldn't use Core 2 on a production box.

Hello, I was looking into getting a Redhat 9 box, however now the host only offers Fedora. I am not familiar with the differences, but had some questions.
Are things such as fantasico and such all compatible? Am I going to notice any major differences? I can manage a redhat 9 box no problem, but am still looking into this new OS.

Although Fedora Core 1 will probably run cpanel just fine, beware. It is designed as a cutting edge distro with recent RPMs and frequent updates. So it will be a tradeoff of latest versions vs. change and possbible bugs.
I'd recommend you go with a stable (i.e. not rapidly changing) distro for web hosting. e.g. RHEL3. These have longer release cycles (~12 months) and support horizons (~5 years)RimuHosting.com - VPS Hosting and Dedicated Server Hosting since 2003
