Well -- at least these are the right questions to be resolved.Nodsu said:What are you going to install (an OS name) on it?
Where are you going to put the machine (pictures, music, database)?
How many people are you going to provide the services to (at the same time)?
What services exactly are they going to be (email, ftp, ldap, dns, ...)?
Are you sure you can't do it with a random old PC?
