I use box with coppermine 800Mhz -> on the other end 50 boxes with linux.
Backup detail:
(rsync over ssh) vpn connection on ADSL INTERNET and GPRS,UMTS.
[root@kawaii ~]# uname -a
Linux kawaii 2.6.14.7-5 #1 Fri Mar 17 15:04:32 CET 2006 i686
Celeron_(Coppermine) unknown PLD Linux

Other services on machine are:
apache
smb
rsync
Make some extra swap partition just in case. I got some strange
situation until I made some extra swap(just 128MB and 256 ). I am sure
that only if machine is properlly checked (memtest and other stuff) it
could work for you 24/7.
