Have you tried using the one mentioned in the wiki? Its IP address is 192.168.0.108 and has been up for almost six months: $ uptime 22:17:08 up 166 days, 4:54, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 However, I just installed some updates on it, including a new kernel, which required a reboot. As for storage, there's seems to be a fair amount of free space: $ df -hTl -x tmpfs Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda1 ext3 19G 2.0G 16G 11% / /dev/hdb5 vfat 38G 32K 38G 1% /media/sharing The last time I checked, the machine was under the workbench and plugged into both the network and the UPS. The username and password are on the machine, according to the wiki. So, if anyone wants to play with it, feel free to hook up a monitor, keyboard, and mouse and have at it. > Would a shared external USB drive be a better way to go about this? Dunno. Give it a shot.
