"just a server" - you'll need to be more precise...is this a sytem
control machine, binary distibution machine, or database server
machine? (since it's not a simple fileserver). I would still recommend
against non-dedicated AFS servers of any type. Interactive use of
machines can use up all of a system's resources especially as X
servers tend to bloat or runaway processes get spawned. What do
other people think?
