Nothing on my debian file server needs to be 24/7. It's things like photos, music, ISO images. However I do want it segregated from the Internet.

Must try again. thanks, Philip On 09/05/12 17:12, Izaac wrote: > On Wed, May 09, 2012 at 03:11:19PM +0100, Philip wrote: >> It's about power consumption and availability. > > Yep.
