How much stuff do you plan on hosting? If I were you, I would throw together an old junky P2, with a 10/100 nic in it and a large hdd. It will serve fine as a FTP site. Just make sure you stack as much RAM as possible in it to help performance/prevent clogs.


Its a much cheaper and simpler route ro take.
