CentOS would basically be my recommendation, it's Red Hat for the most part.

Ubuntu probably has better GUI and more user friendly, but you'll find more online support for CentOS if/when you get stuck.

And doing a desktop install and running a server off it it isn't a big deal IMO for small stuff, but for true security people seem to recommend a dedicated console only system.
