What distro would be good, considering that I might well put it into a
10gig drive for the OS and a 30gig for downloads… and that it would
probably need a bandwith limiter and ability to access it remotely…
Also, what DC++, torrent and sharazaa clients would I want/need?
Nate
Is this going to be a server or a client box?
I would be tempted to say debian if its going to be a server or
ubuntu/kubuntu if it is going to be a client computer.
I know that azureus is a good bittorrent client although might be a bit
heavy for that computer if hot azureus the default client will do the job
For DC++ There is a DC++ client for linux around somewhere.
I'm sorry I dunno about sharazaa
these are ofcause all going to be used to get linux distros so that the
load is taken off the servers isn't it :P
