I've apt-get dist upgraded from RH7.3+updates to FC1. Works fine -
there's just the usual tedious cleaning up of config files to do
afterwards.  (be sure to run apt-get dist-upgrade through tee to save
the output).

DNS should be ok, provided you are already running BIND 9 on RH7. 
Otherwise, you'll hit the usual 8 -> 9 BIND conversion problems.
