Oh dears, I'd dream a Mac Mini as a server if it had two interface cards
instead of just one. Though Ubuntu does the job at home with quite some
work because as much as many efforts maintainers put in it. Things are
not done stright or easyly. Always something to fix, configuration files
to fiddle with, bugs to work around. BTW F/OSS has my heart and most of
the time I can't afford comercial softwares licences. I prefer to do
things hard and legally than copying commercial software. Bless F/OSS
for that and shame that it eat my time more than I'd like to.
